No, that was me.  I moved the old malloc.cc to malloc_wrapper.cc a while ago
and made a new malloc.cc.  I shouldn't have done that but the damage is done

Editing CVS/Entries and removing the malloc.cc entry should fix it.  I don't know
if "cvs up -A" or "cvs up -AC" would work or not.  I suspect not.
