I have a question regarding this warning message (which is repeated many
times):

stdlib.h seems to be assumed always, and malloc.h hasn't been needed for
some time. Do some of the supported systems still use malloc.h instead
of stdlib.h for this stuff? Or can the malloc.h detection simply be
removed from auto/headers, ngx_posix_config.h, et al?
What OS ?
malloc.h is required for memalign(), however, now memalign() is not used in
nginx.
This is on OpenBSD. I maintain the OpenBSD nginx port, and I am looking
for ways to reduce warnings and generally improve platform support.
FYI, it's working well as far as I've tested except for mail, which I
have not set up an auth server to test yet.
On FreeBSD I see in objs/autoconf.err:

One way is to add
./configure ... --with-cc-opt="-DNGX_HAVE_MALLOC_H=0"
