using malloc in C loaded into the T env

    Are there any ill effects doing dynamic storage allocating via malloc
    in a C module loaded into T?

There shouldn't be any problem, if you're running T 2.8.  I think that
Unix T 2.7 might screw up badly when it GC's.  In both Unix and Aegis T
2.8, you may run out of space, but if you need more, the amount
available is controlled by the -l command line switch, which defaults to
some large number.  If the 2.8 release notes don't answer any other
questions, ask Norman or me again.
