Still in stage 1, trying to compile libiberty - it seems to use alloc whereas HPE's advice to us is to use newer functions like malloc - will libiberty not compile without alloc or is there a way to bypass it so it uses the newer functions? I'm not sure what you are seeing, but it looks to me like libiberty uses malloc.
