No - my mistake was not searching far enough for malloc.h; I got
the wrong one.  I have no problem with that organization.  I
envisioned the macros hidden in something else down the food
chain.  I didn't expand that tar file at all, just extracted
specific pieces.

BTW I have heard nothing about the use of hooks/malldbg with
memalign etc. I referred to in another thread.
