Subject: [PATCH 1/2] backport: Port jpeg configuration to Solaris 10 with Sun
 C.

* configure.ac: Check for jpeglib 6b by trying to link it, instead
of relying on cpp magic that has problems in practice.  Check for
both jpeglib.h and jerror.h features.  Remove special case for
mingw32, which should no longer be needed (and if it were needed,
should now be addressable by hotwiring emacs_cv_jpeglib).
Fixes: bug#20332

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] backport fix for #24065: calloc loop when compiling with
 -O2.

This patch fixes

    EMACSLOADPATH= '../src/bootstrap-emacs' -batch --no-site-file --no-site-lisp -l autoload \
       --eval "(setq generate-autoload-cookie \";;;###cal-autoload\")" \
       --eval "(setq generated-autoload-file (expand-file-name
    (unmsys--file-name
    \"../../git-checkout/lisp/calendar/cal-loaddefs.el\")))" \
       -f batch-update-autoloads ../../git-checkout/lisp/calendar
    make[2]: *** [Makefile:466: ../../git-checkout/lisp/calendar/cal-loaddefs.el] Segmentation fault

in gdb seen as

    in calloc (nmemb=<error reading variable: DWARF-2 expression error:Loop detected (257).>, size=size@entry=1) at gmalloc.c:1510

I did not find malloc-fixing commits from emacs master to cleanly
cherry-pick, so this patch replaces the relevant part in configure
(emacs 53da55b8cc45e76b836ebaadd23f46e92d25abce).

* configure.ac: backport system_malloc/hybrid_malloc detection.
