As a result of the recent jemalloc update, the format for =
/etc/malloc.conf has changed.  If your system has an old-style =
/etc/malloc.conf, you will want to delete it prior to installworld, and =
optionally re-create it using the new format after rebooting.  See =
malloc.conf(5) for details (specifically the TUNING section and the =
"opt.*" entries in the MALLCTL NAMESPACE section).

The MALLOC_OPTIONS environment variable and the _malloc_options global =
do not pose the same headache, because their new counterparts are named =
MALLOC_CONF and malloc_conf, respectively.
