IMHO, there could be no solution that disallows calling `malloc' and
friends. Many C library functions call `malloc' internally. Heck,
even the startup code calls `malloc'. It seems impractical to require
that a program avoids using all those libc functions. If you insist
on your design, you will probably need to rewrite not only Allegro, but
large parts of libc as well.
