I've seen drop-in replacement libraries for malloc () that keep track of
memory allocation to warn users if they are overwriting or forgetting
to free memory.  Unfortunately, I haven't bothered to save any of these
posted libraries.  I'm working on an application where I can really use
one.  The more information it provides (to locate the bug) the better.

Will someone please post such a library, or tell where it can be located?

Thanks,

Daniel
