The catch is these both only run on x86, and not on psion. Alternatively, replace the system malloc and free with your own hand-rolled malloc and free. Finally, you may be able to simply allocate a block the size of your entire heap at startup time, fill it with SNaN (or 0xDEADBEEF, or whatever), and then free it. The last is the simplest, so I'd try it first, and then, if your x86 source is the same as your psion source, try valgrind.
