 This makes me think why not make dlmalloc a default in squid?
 Alot of people constantly talk about leaks in squid when actually they
 are using "wrong" malloc lib for squid. I also have been there ;)

 And, btw, dlmalloc included with squid is old.

   Note: There may be an updated version of this malloc obtainable at
           ftp://g.oswego.edu/pub/misc/malloc.c
         Check before installing!

* VERSION 2.7.0 Sun Mar 11 14:14:06 2001 Doug Lea (dl at gee)

 Also, imho it makes sense to split dlmalloc into .c and .h
