When cross compiling configure can not execute the test programs
compiled using a cross compiler to verify if malloc(0) returns NULL or
what. So it does the safe thing and replaces calls to malloc with
calls to rpl_malloc and adds the malloc.o to LIBOBJS.
It is wrong to use AC_FUNC_MALLOC in cofigure.ac and not have a
definition for rpl_malloc. See
http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/Particular-Functions.html#index-AC_005fFUNC_005fMALLOC-399
Oh yes, it says AC_FUNC_MEMCMP is "obsolescent". Maybe could just drop that.
