Re: [21.5R21.4] [PATCH] Use system malloc on ppc64.

Stephen> Didn't you mean to write "configure.ac"? ;-) Moving the S&M files into configure.ac is something that I plan to do, but not in the immediate future. Meanwhile access to a ppc64 box at work has produced a scratch I wanted to itch :-) Stephen> Among other things, AFAIK configuration hard-coded in the s&m files Stephen> will conflict with the information that appears in Installation, [...] In this particular situation this is not the case. Some previous developer added code to run the s&m files through CPP and turn certain #defines back into shell variables (see CPP_to_sh in autoconf.ac), one of which is SYSTEM_MALLOC. This trick is also done on Darwin, BTW. Ville, I take your point about ia64 and will add it to the commit. However, it's only a minor matter because XEmacs on Itanium has far more problems then just system malloc.
