There is hopefully a file named README.OSX in the distribution
that provides some (few) hints about compiling on OSX. It may not
get added to the tar file when I build the distribution.
You can find it at 
  http://www.ggobi.org/README.OSX

Anyway, in there, I suggest just creating malloc.h locally
within  the GGobi source files as an empty file.
