What results from a "nm objc-malloc.o"?

RLR> Does make check work for you?

The platforms I tested (and it worked) were GNU/Linux, NetBSD, Solaris
2.5, and Irix 5.3.

As far as I can tell, nothing.  As a workaround, you can edit
tclObjc.m changing "objc_malloc" to "malloc" and "objc_free" to "free"
and then recompile.  It would be nice to get to the bottom of this,
though.
