Can somebody enlighten me what this hunk is about, and how it helps GCC
4.4?

It helps in that malloc.h is included even if we happen to compile the 
stuff as a MinGW program.  Otherwise necessary function declarations are 
missing.

Hopefully less so, now.

I wish enough information were in the commit log message from the
beginning.
