I installed the non-tricky parts into the trunk,
in bzrs 107916 through 107919.
The gmalloc.c part remains.  Attached is a more up-to-date
version of the remaining part, with some more stuff added
that we've already talked about (e.g., replacing __malloc_size_t
with size_t) and some of the iffier stuff removed
(e.g., removing valloc).

I'd like to test it a bit more internally, before
installing it on the trunk.  The testing is a bit
tricky since the current Emacs trunk fails the
GC_MALLOC_CHECK tests on a "make bootstrap" when
using gmalloc.c.  I don't know if that is a longstanding
problem that can't easily be fixed, or what...
