Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
+@code{malloc (0)} always returns a NULL pointer on some platforms:
+AIX 5.1, OSF/1 5.1.
@end itemize
Extension: Gnulib provides a module @samp{malloc} that substitutes a
-@code{malloc} implementation that behaves more like the glibc implementation.
+@code{malloc} implementation that behaves more like the glibc implementation,
+regarding the result of @code{malloc (0)}.
