Thanks, I can easily install the following further patch as well.
There are similar usages in gmalloc.c but that's verging even more
into code cleanup and at this point I assume we should be focusing
on the bug fixes.

* alloc.c (__malloc_size_t): Remove.
All uses replaced by size_t.  See Andreas Schwab's note
<http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9079#8>.
