DNSSEC?

Don't think for one second that using malloc directly would have
saved OpenSSL here.  By default malloc does not zero freed memory
it returns.  It is a feature that needs to be enabled.  If OpenSSL
wanted to zero memory it was returning could have done that itself.

The only difference is that *some* malloc implementations examine
the envionment and change their behaviour based on that.

That OpenSSL used its own memory allocator was a problem does not
stand up to rigourous analysis.
