 * Function:    H5MM_malloc

 *

 * Purpose:     Similar to the C89 version of malloc().

 *

 *              On size of 0, we return a NULL pointer instead of the

 *              standard-allowed 'special' pointer since that's more

 *              difficult to check as a return value. This is still

 *              considered an error condition since allocations of zero

 *              bytes usually indicate problems.

 *  

 * Return:  Success:    Pointer new memory

 *

 *          Failure:    NULL
