Thank you for doing this!  I ran codeguard on Pool before I released it, and
got the same:

> test_pool_alloc.cpp:  heap corruption - allocates with malloc and frees
> with delete[]

However, after much investigation into the code, I don't believe that
codeguard is correct.  It's possible that the inlining in the header can
cause problems: array nothrow new is an inlined call to nothrow new which is
an inlined call to malloc, but delete is *not* an inlined call to free.

So there is no actual heap corruption with pool.  But thanks for running the
test!
