Hi, okay i had to take a look in the history first... !Resume deorbit burn sequence for <malloc.h>. Inspection of my make logs !reveals no programs in the standard build which hit the previous warning !message. This change will NOT be merged to 4-stable But this is only for the system , not the ports. Ive many probs to compile them without malloc.h. And if you are really annoyed of course 7 years should be enough time to write patches for the ports. But i think it doesn't hurt someone if you let it what it was... or does it?
