We can certainly just disable the malloc init hook if it detects
that its under fakeroot.
You can use an undocumented API feature to detect/disable fakeroot
temporarily (see the bottom of this message:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=15;att=0;bug=224030
) or you can look for environmental variables being set.
Fixing the root cause is probably preferable, though I don't have
much time to look at it myself.
Agreed; fixing the root problem is a better bet.
Manuel -- can you ping the fakeroot people? It would be preferable to
the method described in that URL.
