Here, i believe, you are inventing artificial restrictions on how malloc behaves, i don't see anything that prevents the implementor from setting aside a range of addresses with 31st bit set as an indicator of "zero" allocations, and then happily giving it to the user of malloc and consumming it in free.
The implementation needs to track which addresses it handed out, since it is required that malloc(0) != malloc(0) (unless both are NULL).
