I think we can not avoid guc_strdup in case of (source != PGC_S_DEFAULT) 
because function call_string_check_hook() contains "free(*newval);" in 
PG_CATCH-section.
Probably we should free the newval in block

+                    if (source != PGC_S_DEFAULT)
+                    {
+                        /* Release newextra as we use reset_extra */
+                        if (newextra)
+                            free(newextra);
