Well, the bug only appears if you didn't include the header file declaring malloc (or any other void*-returning function). If you did, there's no problem.

It's a pretty easy thing to leave out, missing a required header, but if you always compile under -Wall it'll catch this and many other problems as well.

Thanks for the details, but I remain concerned about taking a language, clearly with some tricky aspects, so closely identified with 16 and 32 bit computing into 64 bit computing.
