I don't know the details of this, so I may be talking nonsense,
but it reminds me of what I found in looking at the present
memalign.c.  That uses a herd of macros which do not appear in the
source, nor in malloc.h.  This makes the source unreadable,
without long and possibly fruitless searches through stdlib.h. 
So, while there may be prototypes for the source routines buried
in this manner, there should not be references IMO.
