Hi,

Sounds like a nice rainy Sunday project. Unfortunately it does not rain in California that much, so it is going to take a while before I have a chance to look at it.

    Apple provides a memory tester named "Guard Malloc", but CMake does not
    directly support it.  See:
    <http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=4954>

I have updated the bug.  I made this comment:

"This is really not like valgrind at all. It causes your program to crash. There is no additional output that ctest would be able to parse and report on the dashboard. The man page suggests that you run the program in gdb to find out what is wrong. I suppose you could just run a regular dashboard with this library on, and if a test fails, you have a memory issue. However, I don't see how this would work with ctest."
