/* : mem handling stuff
*
* 2/11/99 JC
* - from im_open.c and callback.c
* - malloc tracking stuff added
* 11/3/01 JC
* - im_strncpy() added
* 20/4/01 JC
* - im_(v)snprintf() added
* 6/7/05
* - more tracking for DEBUGM
* 20/10/06
* - return NULL for size <= 0
* 11/5/06
* - abort() on malloc() failure with DEBUG
* 20/10/09
* - gtkdoc comment
* 6/11/09
* - im_malloc()/im_free() now call g_try_malloc()/g_free() ... removes
* confusion over whether to use im_free() or g_free() for things like
* im_header_string()
