[Rd] custom allocators, Valgrind and uninitialized memory

[Dirk Eddelbuettel]

Andreas,

Can you briefly describe what it is you are trying to do?

In general, no R package would use valgrind directly; it is an optional
debugger. Also note _Writing R Extensions_ has a few things to say about how
memory destined for R object can and cannot be allocated -- I presume your
custom allocator is only for objects you managed and do not return to R?

Best, Dirk
