malloc.h is an invalid header on Mac OS X

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. SVN r695
2. compile simple test attached
3. io_new/detail/path_spec.hpp fails compilation with:

/Users/Davide/Luminance/gil-contributions-read-only/gil_2/boost/gil/extension/io
_new/detail/path_spec.hpp:23:20: fatal error: malloc.h: No such file or 
directory
compilation terminated.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Compilation should be fine

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN r695, Mac OS X 10.6.7, several compilers: GCC 4.2, GCC 4.6, Clang 2.9, 
Clang 3.0

Please provide any additional information below.

On Mac OS X, malloc.h is considered a deprecated header. For more info,
