>Description:
Package glib uses an internal static structure to find
memory functions (malloc, etc), but somehow these are not
initialized correctly on 5.5.1.  The glib code exhibits
the same failings on Solaris 2.6 if gcc 2.95.[23] is used,
but gcc 3.0.4 fixed the issue on that architecture.

The configure code for various other packages contains a
snippit which should return the version of glib, but this
cores also.
>How-To-Repeat:
Download glib-2.0.0 from www.gtk.org, then
configure --with-libiconv --prefix=/somewhere/else
make

Partway through the build, it tries to use glib-genmarshal,
but this program cores when it references g_strdup, which
references g_new, which is a macro for g_malloc, which gets
lost when it calls

mem = glib_mem_vtable.malloc (n_bytes);
