Strange.  I have brought it up on the Mac just fine; also with Think C
3.01, on a Mac+, 1Meg, unknown (but fairly recent) system file.  The
only difference is that I am using a later version of STDWIN than you
got through ftp; the ftp version is for LSC 2.15 or even earlier.
You could go check if there is a file "malloc.c" in the STDWIN project;
throw it out, it is no longer needed in Think C 3.01.

BTW, here's one bugfix to Mac STDWIN:

In file stdwin.c, function wclose, replace this:

	if (win == active)
		active= NULL;

by this:

	if (win == active) {
		rmlocalmenus(win);
		active= NULL;
	}

This fixes an annoying bug that is triggered by closing browser windows.

I'll try to find some time to prepare a new distribution version, test
it, and install it on uunet (and maybe even on gatekeeper), but this
will be at least another week.
