Negative. I did not use Python's malloc. Here is the contents of my 
/var/db/ports/python27/options:

    # This file is auto-generated by 'make config'.
    # No user-servicable parts inside!
    # Options for python27-2.7.2_1
    _OPTIONS_READ=python27-2.7.2_1
    WITH_THREADS=true
    WITHOUT_HUGE_STACK_SIZE=true
    WITHOUT_SEM=true
    WITHOUT_PTH=true
    WITH_UCS4=true
    *WITHOUT_PYMALLOC=true*
    WITHOUT_IPV6=true
    WITH_FPECTL=true

It may be, that some other knob triggers this, but the problem seems 
with the gobject-introspection.

And, at any rate, when their configure is invoked with 
``--disable-tests'' (as the port is doing), they should not be testing 
for this. Meanwhile, I suggest the following patch:

After this I was able to continue building out the new machine. Yours,
