I expect I will be able to get to rebuilding the memalign()
portion of nmalloc within the next month.  Things have been out of
kilter here due to various personal problems.  I do not expect to
modify the other portions in the least.  Virtually the whole
existing memalign stuff will be thrown out.

I do expect to name the routine _memalign, so that stdlib.h can
have suitable provisions to conditionally redefine memalign and
avoid namespace pollution.
