Actually, now that I take a closer look at it... There are _three_ allocators right now, MALLOC, MALLOC_SIMPLE, and MALLOC_STANDARD. Is your objection that MALLOC does everything MALLOC_SIMPLE does (including nommu support), so there's no real need for MALLOC_SIMPLE? If would be nice if the config symbols were in order from smallest to largest implementation...
