  Modified:    lib/libc/stdlib  malloc.3 malloc.c
  Log:
  phkmalloc/2
  "zero' and 'junk' options to help find and diagnose malloc abuse.
  EXTRA_SANITY defaults "junk" to on.
  Don't dump the internal state, unless EXTRA_SANITY.
  General code cleanup.
  Error messages cleaned up a bit, more checking earlier.
  EXTRA_SANITY is default at this time (just in case).
  Performance (without EXTRA_SANITY) is better, beats gnumalloc in
  both time & space most of the time:

  SANITY is not an option anymore. (!!)
