Well, try:
for (int idx = 0; idx < 255; idx++)
{
void *p = malloc(0xFFFFFFFF);
}
and your done.
This is IMO not an argument and only an expectation.
I agree with you, that this problems are not a big issue,
since the allocated space is not large enough to create
really problems.
Nonetheless: Malloc can fail and we have to take care of that.
