we have presently two cases of
#include <stdlib.h>
#ifdef HAVE_MALLOC_H
# include <malloc.h>
#endif
in the two source files
libinetutils/localhost.c
telnet/commands.c
In all unices I am using, the proper prototype for malloc(3) is in
<stdlib.h>, and any invocation of <malloc.h> issues a warning that
its use is nowadays obsolete. Is there any known harm in actually
removing these superfluous inclusions?
You can remove it; it is old cruft to use dlmalloc and friends.
