* renamed malloc.h mymalloc.h, and added MALLARG as the type of the

  argument to malloc() (size_t or unsigned int)

* listobject.c: check for overflow of the size of the object,
  so things like range(0x7fffffff) will raise MemoryError instead
  of calling malloc() with -4 (and then crashing -- malloc's fault)
