Yes, I got failures in the conform tests.  (I also hit some nptl errors but I 
guess they are unrelated).  I've added the __USE_GNU check to stdlib.h.  I 
assume this is not necessary for malloc.h since malloc.h is not a standard 
header?  I'll send and updated patch to the mailing list.

But I wonder if there is any general interest or objections to adding the 
`reallocarray' function to glibc?

Rüdiger
