A few years ago I looked at libgnumalloc briefly, and found that % grep -Ri gnumalloc /usr/src /usr/xsrc seems to reveal that there are no actual users of libgnumalloc in our current tree.. the XFree86 and Xorg NetBSD.cf files disable it for NetBSD>1.4J, and pkgsrc showed nothing explicitly referring to it. The README file says | This is the standalone distribution of GNU malloc. | GNU malloc is part of the GNU C Library, but is also distributed | separately. but looking at gnu.org I don't see that the latter is still true, and our version is very old according to the VERSION file | this version of GNU malloc was obtained from | prep.ai.mit.edu on 9/22/1993. There was no version noted." ..are there any known uses for this, is it time to remove it? regards, iain
