Comment (by Hello71):

 I wanted to put all of the allocator-related configure.ac code together. I
 tested at least one of the versions of the patches both with and without
 jemalloc installed, but I only tested on Linux. The plan was to remove
 openbsd malloc first. I see no benefit to using it over jemalloc.
