This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
declares them to return char *. For some reason, this causes no problems
with the old compiler tools, but doing a 'make world' with gcc 2.6.3 in a
seperate DESTDIR got me this error:

Stop.
Declaring malloc and realloc to return void * fixes this. It could be that
the new gcc is a bit more picky about these things.
(Including all changes for FreeBSD - importing the original eBones distribution
would be too complex at this stage, since I don't have access to Piero's
CVS.)
(If you want to include eBones in your system, don't forget to include
MAKE_EBONES in /etc/make.conf.)
(This stuff is now also suppable from braae.ru.ac.za.)
Bones originally from MIT SIPB.
Original port to FreeBSD 1.x by Piero Serini.
Moved to FreeBSD 2.0 by Doug Rabson and Geoff Rehmet.
Nice bug fixes from Doug Rabson.
