What *almost* works is

        perl Configure.pl --gc=libc

That uses the system's malloc()/free() combination directly. The 
--gc=malloc tries to do that and *also* replace the system's malloc with 
src/malloc.c -- along with all the portability problems that entails.

The first step, however, would likely be to get the --gc=libc version 
working. Only then would it make sense to spend extra effort on getting 
the custom malloc() version to work.
