        * gmem.[hc]: got rid of outdated dmalloc support. provide g_try_malloc()
        and g_try_realloc() which _may_ fail and return NULL.
        nuked g_mem_check(), provided GMemVTable for memory function
        virtualization, alterable at program startup with g_mem_set_vtable().
        provided glib_mem_profiler_table and g_mem_profile() to support limited
        profiling information out of the box (uses mprotect() for free()ed areas
        on linux).
        provide globally visible G_MEM_ALIGN.
        buncha cleanups.

        * docs/macros.txt: file to get a clue about the various configuration
        macros.

        * docs/debugging.txt: explain debugging traps.

        * configure.in: got rid of --enable-mem-check and --enable-mem-profile,
        define GLIB_SIZEOF_VOID_P and GLIB_SIZEOF_LONG. check malloc prototypes
        and define SANE_MALLOC_PROTOS is we can us...
