The original message is a great piece of work, finally getting to the
heart of the problem.  

The solution, it seems to me, is that the set of modules processed by
getlist.awk should include the itc malloc and exclude the system malloc.
 If such an approach is made to work, we'll release it in a forthcoming
patch.
