Nope.  Still works fine.

I assume that, since you're telling people to define a function, vim
suspends correctly when not used with a function?  That's odd.  It
makes no sense at all that having bash, pdksh, or zsh go through an
extra level of command translation would make vim unsuspendable.

How does malloc enter into it?  I don't see anything pointing to malloc
here.
