ANDREW_MALLOC_ENV is defined in the distributed ATK system in the file
.../src/andrew/config/allsys.h.  To get the plumber your
.../src/andrew/config/site.h file must include

#define DEBUG_MALLOC_ENV 1

To get the new malloc in most applications, the only directories that
would need to be recompiled would be .../andrew/overhead/malloc and
.../andrew/atk/apps.  (I think.)
