See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions. + +The makefile builds libmalloc.a and gmalloc.o. If you are using GNU malloc +to replace your system's existing malloc package, it is important to make +sure you get all GNU functions, not some of the GNU functions and some from +the system library. gmalloc.o has all the functions in one file, so using +that will make sure you don't accidentally mix the two malloc packages. |
