Verified.  Setting malloc.conf options to 'aj', lets git-fetch run
without crashing:

: root@kobe:/etc# ln -fs aj malloc.conf
: root@kobe:/etc#
:
: keramida@kobe:/home/keramida/git/erc$ git-fetch
: keramida@kobe:/home/keramida/git/erc$

: root@kobe:/etc# ln -fs AJ malloc.conf
: root@kobe:/etc#
:
: keramida@kobe:/home/keramida/git/erc$ git-fetch
: Segmentation fault: 11 (core dumped)
