Hi,

I've seen Boehm's gargabage collector for C successfully used
for leaks hunting. (ifl://boehm+garbage+collector) 

But of course, it won't catch overruns or random memory damages.

We tried BoundsChecker once, but it was so unhappy with our
own debug memory manager that it was unusable, reporting
thousands of non-leaks as leaks etc.
