<malloc.h> NOT found.
Checking to see how well your C compiler groks the void type...
Good. It appears to support void to the level perl5 wants.
Checking to see how big your pointers are...
Do you wish to wrap malloc calls to protect against potential overflows? [n]

Your system wants malloc to return 'void *', it would seem.
Your system uses void free(), it would seem.

I can't seem to find your C library. I've looked in the following places:
