- If I recall correctly, the pre-4.2 malloc did not appear to work
- with franz because it assumed that it had control
- of all of free memory. The malloc for 4.2 uses a buddy
- system and should not care if, for example, franz
- has pre-empted pieces of virtual memory for its own use.
- On the other side, franz only looks at the memory
- it gets from sbrk, so it doesn't care about malloc'd
- areas of virtual memory.

- More to the point, I have been using malloc inside
- cfasl'd code and have not yet seen a problem.
