What are the values of HAVE_MALLOC, malloc, HAVE_DECL_MALLOC, and
MALLOC_0_IS_NONNULL in config.h?  My understanding is that on Tru64
malloc(0) returns NULL, but perhaps "configure" deduced this
incorrectly; that would explain the problem.

Also, can you please get a stack backtrace for that failure?  You
should be able to plant a breakpoint on the 'error' function and
backtrace from there.  This will help narrow things down.

Thanks.
