Can you find one single library function that really does do this,
and figure out why it does?
Also, can anyone explain why the call to free(malloc_state_ptr) crashes
when I enable XMALLOC_OVERRUN_CHECK ?
I don't know why, but the amount of leakage in never freeing this
is insignificant, so I'd say just delete that call to `free'.
