It was find_type_or_exit(), and you could've had less changes if you'd
replaced it with an inline function. Basically, copied the function into
the header and made it static inline.

ok

I think you need to replace my_str_malloc_default() with
my_malloc(..., MYF(MY_FAE)), not my_malloc(..., MYF(0))

I'd say, return 2 instead of exit/abort. my_load_defaults already does
it, because my_search_option_files returns 2 for OOM.

dunno, return -1, for example, and exit in the caller?
