  Modified:    usr.bin/compile_et error_table.y
  Log:
  According to stdlib.h, malloc and realloc return void * but error_table.y
  declares them to return char *. For some reason, this causes no problems
  with the old compiler tools, but doing a 'make world' with gcc 2.6.3 in a
  seperate DESTDIR got me this error:
  
  yacc -d /usr/src/usr.bin/compile_et/error_table.y
  cc -O2 -I. -I/usr/src/usr.bin/compile_et/../../lib/libcom_err   -I/mnt/usr/include -c y.tab.c -o error_table.o
  In file included from /usr/src/usr.bin/compile_et/et_lex.lex.l:11,
  from /usr/src/usr.bin/compile_et/error_table.y:233:
  /mnt/usr/include/stdlib.h:100: conflicting types for `malloc'

  Stop.
  
  Declaring malloc and realloc to return void * fixes this. It could be that
  the new gcc is a bit more picky about these things.
