The simplest way to approach cleanups, which I recommend in nearly all
cases, is to treat them as block-scoped and to always pass the result of
a make_cleanup call to do_cleanups. Try to avoid tricks with conditions
and possibly-NULL cleanup pointers, this usually leads to trouble.

I think there's no need to initialize this, since you re-set it later.

Ok so far, but...
Pierre> + section_data = xrealloc (section_data, otherix
Pierre> + * sizeof (struct read_pe_section_data));
... this can free the original pointer.
What you want is:
section_cleanup = make_cleanup (free_current_contents, §ion_data);
This will free the current value of the pointer, instead of capturing
the value when the cleanup is made.
Pierre> /* Discard expdata. */
Pierre> do_cleanups (back_to);
Pierre> + /* Discard section_data. */
Pierre> + do_cleanups (section_cleanup);
Cleanups are a stack, so you can just invoke do_cleanups on the
outermost one. Just delete the local variable 'back_to'.
