usedevel, no otherwise, but I'm expecting hints files on known
good platforms to override this. (and known bad)

mine supplied by Steve Hay while I was working on this.

Unlike perl, 0 in void context isn't special cased in C :-)
(So it warns). Tweak the no-action malloc wrap checkers to avoid
warnings.
