It turned out to be easier than I thought, so patch-4 is now good to go. 
  It should detect buffer under- or over-runs of as little as one byte 
(unless you're unlucky enough to write the magic number in there).

I also changed the check programs to use ymalloc() and yfree(), as this 
will allow us to trace their memory usage if there is ever a problem in 
the code they test.

This'll probably be it for a while, as I'll be too tired to do anything 
much in the week and I have plans for the weekend...
