Sorry about this, folks. I thought that I had tested this well before committing it, but it turns out I forgot to actually use the modified libc during testing. There's a 12 minute window during which malloc was broken in the tree. You really don't want revision 1.99 of malloc.c, so make sure to avoid it. Jason
