That looks much better.
See inline for comments.

I think, you mean if (!bpath)  here.

I think, you mean  "if (!drv) goto out;" here.

That doesn't work. If strdup() fails, then drv and buf are NULL here.
Analagous counts for the other failures.
You need to check for != NULL before calling free().
