For everyone building GNU Emacs on SunOS 4.1 on Sparc:
Somewhere in the config.h (or s-sunos4_1.h or whatever) you must include:
#define SYSTEM_MALLOC

I don't know why or what changed for 4.1, but this is the fix.
Sun has published this in the Software Technical Bulletin...


Try this in s-sunos4_1.h:  (sun compiler defines "sun4" if you're on sparc)
#ifdef sun4
#define SYSTEM_MALLOC
#endif
