Does Boost have a memory debugging and measuring allocator? Something
like Howard describes in http://tinyurl.com/67764p7:

>What will it do for you?

>   * It will detect whole program memory leaks.

>   * It will detect double deletes and non-heap based pointer deletes.
>   * You can query it for how much memory is used at any point.
>   * Because of the previous point, you can bracket a function call
>     with usage queries to find out "memory leaked" for that call.
>   * You can query a new-based pointer for how much memory it points to.
>   * Performance is quite respectible for a memory debugger (but it is
>     not intended for release code).
