(Get the code!)
there is no reason to reinvent debug malloc on Windows with Microsoft compiler. the C runtime (debug) contains that functionality already (with bit patterns against overwrites etc), it just does not contain such bugs :)
On other platforms, where debug malloc functionality does not exist (are there any?) it could make sense to ensure 16 byte alignment too, just in case some SSE functionality is used :)
