Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

This is a very interesting patch, thank you.
I've tested it on Mandriva 64-bit and it indeed fixes the free() issue on the 
XML workload. I see no regression on pybench, stringbench or json/pickle 
benchmarks.

I guess the final patch will have to guard the mallopt() call with some #ifdef?
(also, I suppose a portable solution would have to call mmap() ourselves for 
allocation of arenas, but that would probably be a bit more involved)
