I would like to know what came out of that discussion and if (or when) the malloc in 950412-SNAP will be replaced by 2.0.5 or 2.1. I'm getting tired of compiling all big user programs (xv, tin, etc...) with gnumalloc. That's about the biggest problem I currently have with FreeBSD, great operating system! Share and Enjoy!
