PATCH 1/1 Free IFS state after here document expansion

Here's another bug bisecting to f42e443bb ([EXPAND] Fix ifsfirst/ifslastp leak, 2010-09-08). It was found with the following test case, based on the configure script for Tracker:

dash -x -c '
<<-_ACEOF
$@
_ACEOF
exec
' - abcdefgh
+
+ exec �a
exec: 1: : Permission denied

The missing ifsfree call is in expandarg when it returns to openhere during here document expansion.

This patch seems to fix it. Thoughts?

Applied with minor rearrangement. Thanks!
