Please note, that identifiers are usually remembered by sound not by
letter sequence. `zalloc' and `zealloc' are likely to be pronounced
similar and thus there is a good chance that this leads to confusion and
errors. Furthermore, `calloc' and `zalloc' are prone to be pronounced
equally or understood equally, especially by non-native speakers.
That, of course, depends upon how you pronounce "z". In this part of the
world, it's "zed". No confusion with "see" here down-under...
