I have attached a patch for the plmem.c change.  This was part of a larger 
patch that I sent to Phil for testing, but I saw your email about wanting to 
get things tested sooner than later.

Attachment: plmem.patch
Description: Binary data


Also, I will try to test plplot on the Mac and let you know if there are any 
issues.  Do you prefer I try the master branch or the branch that I have been 
making changes with?
