    I usually just have a flag in my Makefile to enable dmalloc (adding a
    -D to the cc line to enable including the header file which is inside
    #ifdef's, adding the linking of the library, etc), which turns off all
    -W flags. gcc's quiet about it then.

    Personally, I find its insistence that free(NULL); is an error to be
    far more irritating. There's a config flag for it somewhere in the
    compile process, though.
