+/* XXX this file is a tempoary hack.
+
+   All hurd-internal code which uses malloc et al includes this file so it
+   will use the internal malloc routines _hurd_{malloc,realloc,free}
+   instead.  The "hurd-internal" functions are the cthreads version,
+   which uses vm_allocate and is thread-safe.  The normal user version
+   of malloc et al is the unixoid one using sbrk.
