Description: C malloc debug library
 Provides routines that can be plugged in to replace malloc(),
 realloc(), calloc(), and free().
 .
 If you're not debugging, and an allocation fails, FDA will call user
 supplied callbacks to allow you to free up some memory or shut down
 the program cleanly -- this means you don't have to check the
 return values from malloc if you don't want to.
 .
 For debugging FDA provides a nice toolkit for validating pointers,
 checking for leaks, gathering memory statistics, bounds checking and
 other nice things.  FDA uses shredding, prefix and postfix signatures,
 and a liberal amount of predicate asserts.
