sdesc: "A malloc debugger."
ldesc: "Drop in replacement for the system's `malloc', `realloc', `calloc',
`free' and other memory 
management routines while providing powerful debugging facilities
configurable at runtime. 
These facilities include such things as memory-leak tracking, fence-post
write detection, 
file/line number reporting, and general logging of statistics."
category: Devel
requires: Cygwin
test: 5.4.2-1

It is a test package because it currently requires a Cygwin snapshot
to configure and work properly, plus a new Cygwin patch to use fork().
