Seems like we need to keep it. This is unfortunate. I wouldn't risk mixing 
malloc and vec_malloc. Who knows what kind of problems this could cause?
What happens if we try to build this code on AIX 7.2 TL5 SP7? Will the compiler 
complain because `malloc` is no longer defined? Should we check 
`defined(malloc)` in addition?
