I noticed on the NeXT machine there is a library call
called malloc_size, which given ptr it
returns the block size allocated to this ptr.
I noticed NeXT uses gcc 1.37 as its compiler.
I don't see similar feature being provided by gcc
on sparc or r6000. We need this malloc_size
to collect statistics for our project. I posted
requesting this info. on comp.lang.c, and was
told that this is a non-portable feature of the language.
We use gcc compiler (1.37.1/ 2.2.2) on sparc
machine. Can some one please help me with this?

Thanks a lot...
