example `doc/en/numerical_sage/ctypes_examples.rst`. We should convert
these to `sage_malloc` as well, probably in #10109.
You are right that some documentation uses `malloc`. But that seems to be
pure C code. So changing `malloc` to `sage_malloc` would imply linking
against `-Lcsage` and possibly adding some `sig_on()`/`sig_off()`
machinery and possibly more complications...
