Now's the time when I wish I had my home-grown versions of malloc() here at
the office...

I'm experiencing sporadic traps in my application that I cannot attribute
to anything.  However, I do a *large* number of malloc()/free() combinations.
I am 99% certain that I am not calling free() twice with the same pointer.
Does anyone know if the MSC 6.0 runtime (notice that I do not have the 
service upgrade) has/had any problems with memory allocation?

Cheers,
Q
