+The debug memory allocation, or dmalloc, library has been
+designed as a drop-in replacement for the system's malloc(),
+realloc(), calloc(), free(), and other memory management
+routines while providing powerful debugging facilities
+configurable at run-time. These facilities include such
+things as memory leak tracking, fence-post write detection,
+file/line number reporting, and general logging of statistics.
