Trawl the tracker before you do - I'm pretty sure there's a patch
(from the Nokia S60 port, IIRC) that adds a couple of macro
definitions so that platform ports and embedding applications can
intercept malloc() and free() calls.

It would be way out of date by now, but I seem to recall thinking it
looked reasonable at a quick glance.

Cheers,
Nick.
