Details:
I've seen two reports so far where malloc() eventually ran
into an infinite loop. This is caused by the freelist
becoming cyclically linked. So far, there's no test case
that would reliably reproduce this situation, but it should
be investigated what might cause that behaviour so it can
be fixed (and hopefully, a regression test could be written
as well for it).
