[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Remove AC_FUNC_MALLOC check.

[Alastair Hughes]

We weren't supplying the rpl_malloc function needed if this failed, and
didn't check for realloc, so just remove.

The build will currently fail if cross compiling or if
ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=no is set, because we don't supply a rpl_malloc
function anywhere. As we don't use AC_FUNC_REALLOC either, just assume that we
will never encounter a buggy system and remove the check.

The other option appears to be to provide a malloc definition somewhere, but in
that case it appears that we should also check for realloc.

I'm unsure which one should be used - opinions?
