That must have been more than a typo? It must have been an endless recursion?
Thanks for the fix!

Yes, they were typos that caused infloops. But little harm done; I don't
think they escaped into any distributions.

Whoops, I take it back. Because those modules defined
_GL_USE_STDLIB_ALLOC, stdlib.h did not define malloc and realloc and so
the undefs were not needed. And as it was, realloc-gnu did not work on
AIX 7.1 because the realloc replacement assumed the malloc replacement.
I fixed this by installing the attached two patches. It's still a bit
messy but at least it works.

* lib/malloc.c: Omit unnecessary "#undef malloc".
I recently introduced it by mistake. This module defines
_GL_USE_STDLIB_ALLOC and so malloc isn’t redefined to rpl_malloc.
