*alloc-gnu, eealloc: Avoid "guessing no" when cross-compiling to glibc. * m4/malloc.m4 (_AC_FUNC_MALLOC_IF): Override in autoconf < 2.70. * m4/realloc.m4 (_AC_FUNC_REALLOC_IF): Override in autoconf < 2.70. * m4/calloc.m4 (_AC_FUNC_CALLOC_IF): Require AC_CANONICAL_HOST. When cross-compiling, choose the first alternative on glibc systems. * modules/eealloc (Files): Add m4/malloc.m4, m4/realloc.m4.
