The only thing I can think of off-hand is, that it's a malloc that
happened before mtrace() was called.  This can happen if, for example,
there's a ctor/init function that's called before main().

Using ltrace to find any pre-mtrace allocs might be fruitful.

Or my malloc trace branch, which hooks sooner than main().
