Done.  The result is at:

   <http://cbfalconer.home.att.net/download/nmalloc.zip>

and compiles with no warnings with -W -Wall -O2.  It no longer
needs -DNDEBUG, instead the inverse is controlled with
-DNEWMALLDBG, so omission gives the production result.  I could
not use gcc.opt, since that collection makes the command lines too
long, and I could not find a way to include a reference to it in
the compile command.

Note that the library needs to include both nmalloc.o and
malldbg.o, so that the debug code will not be loaded unless
referenced.  I leave it to you to install the contents of
malldbg.h and sysquery.h in stdlib.h.
