I realized that you guys had been very busy with 1.6.0r2. I just wanted to
make
sure that lower-priority patches didn't fall through the cracks.

Yes, I was surprised to find the malloc code not using any kind of list
functions/macros. I am willing to rework the patch. By BSD list macros, I
believe you are referring to QUEUE(3) and sys/queue.h. It that right?
Thanks,
