Subject: Long ago, malloc internally had two kinds of failures, warnings and
 errors. The 'A' option elevated warnings to errors, and has been the default
 for some time. Then warnings were effectively eliminated in favor of
 everything being an error, but then the 'a' flag turned real errors into
 warnings! Remove the 'a' option entirely. You shouldn't have used it anyway.
