The functions (malloc, free, etc.) that used to be provided in
malloc.h are now provided in cstdlib for C++ files and stdlib.h for
C files. Since we require a C99 compliant compiler it makes sense
that malloc.h is no longer needed.
This patch also modifies all the C++ files to use the <c...>
version of the standard C header files (e.g. <cstdlib> vs
<stdlib.h>). Some of the files used the C++ version and others did
not. There are still a few other header changes that could be done,
but this takes care of much of it.
The Cygwin compiler is a bit picky. This patch adds some casts
to remove compilation warnings. In the past I have had warnings
off because of problems with the STL, but for C directories
like this it makes sense to enable the warnings. It also does
not recognize that an assert(0) or assert(false) ends a routine
so it complains about no return at end of function or variables
not being defined.
