Jemalloc helps with performance when you have multiple CPUs, but
AFAIK all m68k/coldfire CPUs are single core. On singlecore machine
with less memory, jemalloc is more likely to reduce performance.
If projects use just the normal libc API from jemalloc:
http://linux.die.net/man/3/jemalloc
One possibility would be to replace jemalloc package with just
a header that directs the calls to libc (i.e. on m68k packages
could depend on "jemalloc-dummy" instead).
