generated with the help of perlbug 1.27 running under perl v5.5.660.

On compiling malloc.c, I see

malloc.c:1391: warning: `morecore' was declared implicitly `extern' and later `static'
malloc.c:1023: warning: previous declaration of `morecore'
malloc.c:1391: warning: type mismatch with previous implicit
declaration
malloc.c:1023: warning: previous implicit declaration of `morecore'
malloc.c:1391: warning: `morecore' was previously implicitly declared to return `int'
malloc.c:1391: warning: `morecore' was declared implicitly `extern' and later `static'

This shuts gcc up:
