Hi René, I imagine you Cc:ed me because the nedmalloc stuff came in via the Windows port, contributed by Marius (who is no longer active on the Git project because it works well enough for him)?

I would like to suggest an additional paragraph to explain why we do not need to #include "git-compat-util.h" in nedmalloc from now on: Please note that nedmalloc never actually uses strdup() itself, therefore we need not enforce gitstrdup() usage in nedmalloc.c. The patch looks quite straight-forward otherwise. (Junio, if you want an ACK from me, you hereby got it). Thanks! Dscho
