Right. I'm running 3.3.3.1 (installed from the FreeBSD packages mirror
at ftp.demon.net).
I just checked FreeBSD.cf. It includes;
#ifndef UseGnuMalloc
/* 2.2 doesn't really have GnuMalloc */
#if OSMajorVersion < 2 || (OSMajorVersion == 2 && OSMinorVersion < 2)
#define UseGnuMalloc NO
#else
#define UseGnuMalloc YES
#endif
#endif
I changed this to unilaterally set UseGnuMalloc to "NO". And stuff
now works. So thanks everyone for the pointers.
I'll mention this to XFree86 folks, and see if I can get it changed.
