The symptom in jexec can be fixed by this little patch:

Thanks - this certainly cures the effect.
But the broader problem is malloc. It's leaving errno set to
ENOENT when /etc/malloc.conf doesn't exist. This seems like
wrong behavior to me.
Seems like a POLA violation to me,
No, this is how errno generally work, it is not changed if no error
happens.
I haven't really understood which part, when and why would set the errno in
first place so that it would still be there? Is it something in jexec
that gets the errno in first place or is it something internal to
malloc that sets it returns successfully and doesn't clear it?
