Your request for a relocatable malloc is hard for me to understand.  If
malloc returns a pointer that you save away somewhere in your code, and
then relocatable block is then relocated, you have an **INVALID**
pointer to garbage.  To me, a relocatable pointer is impossible, but
perhaps I do not fully understand your question/request...
