Unless you're talking about a team game or one that allows allied victory, they are only your ally as long as you have that temporary agreement to work together for mutual benefit, or at least not attack eachother. Once you're dead, they aren't your ally, so I don't see why you'd give them anything. Giving away stuff to make people come to your aid, that makes sense. Giving it to someone other than your attacker, or even giving it to your attacker himself (which happens generally to spite people who DIDN'T come to your aid) doesn't make sense to me other than as an attempt to influence the game post death, which ideally people wouldn't care about.
