[PATCH] macros: Use conservative default for malloc(0) when cross-compiling #24460

[Mikhail Gusarov]

Twas brillig at 21:36:41 08.12.2009 UTC-05 when
gaetan.nadon at videotron.ca did gyre and gimble:

 GN> libX11 fails to cross-compile unless --enable-malloc0returnsnull is
 GN> given during configuration, since configure can't run test programs
 GN> in this situation.

Why not give it?

 GN> This is a sensible conservative default that should be used by
 GN> default when cross-compiling rather than requiring it to be forced
 GN> explicitly.

I'd prefer configure to explicitly fail instead of silently making
choices behind my back.
