LINT

1. How can I shut off the ``warning: possible pointer alignment problem'' message lint gives me for each call to malloc?

Don't run lint. Alternatively, provide a prototype of ``extern double * malloc()'' to make the return from malloc() be more strongly aligned.

2: What does LINT stand for, anyway?
