Re: question for the unix gurus about memory protection, etc.
The docs on mprobe look like this:
- Function: enum mcheck_status mprobe (void *POINTER)
The `mprobe' function lets you explicitly check for inconsistencies
in a particular allocated block. You must have already called
`mcheck' at the beginning of the program, to do its occasional
checks; calling `mprobe' requests an additional consistency check
to be done at the time of the call.
The argument POINTER must be a pointer returned by `malloc' or
`realloc'. `mprobe' returns a value that says what inconsistency,
if any, was found. The values are described below.
This unfortunately won't help.

What about the glibc mprobe function? Documented in info, not
manpages.
