Error description
When -qheapdebug is used, the above test case gives out error message about "std::_debug_malloc" not declared. $cat xlc12_defect_heapdebug_stdnamespace.cpp #include <cstdlib> signed main(void) { void * buf = std::malloc(1U); return EXIT_SUCCESS; } $xlC_r -qheapdebug -o xlc12_defect_heapdebug_stdnamespace xlc12_defect_heapdebug_stdnamespace.cpp "xlc12_defect_heapdebug_stdnamespace.cpp", line 4.16: 1540-0130 (S) "std::_debug_malloc" is not declared.

Modify the header /usr/vacpp/include/cstdlib and put the offending memory functions under the std namespace.
