Not including the various libc implementations (dietlibc, klibc, uclibc) 
there are several specialized malloc libraries (dmalloc & jemalloc are 
the most common) that you can compile or link against. Usually since 
they replace malloc and friends everything works, but you can get into 
issues depending on order of linking and how you compile.

I recently put gssd though a few rounds of mallocfail, which allows you 
to progressive test every allocation point (during normal running) to 
ensure it's handled (instead of crashing). I've an updated patchset that 
fixes the event2 conversion to check for successful allocation and a 
couple other spots that crashed if the allocation failed.

I'm taking it a bit slower this time... kinda rushed the last patchset 
out the door since I was needed on another project.  ;-)
