No, it is only included if emacs is #define:d (-Demacs), and it is not when 
compiling from lib-src.  But what are we trying to do, use xrealloc or define 
xrealloc as realloc?

In the first case alloc.c needs to be linked in also, or perhaps 
xrealloc/xmalloc defined in regex.c also (as it is in termcap.s for example).
