Does efence work with C++ nowadays, i.e. new/delete? Last time I used it
(about 4 years ago) it worked very well for C, but didn't do a thing when
I tried C++. It is a very good product, so it would be really nice if it
worked ok with C++. The version I have installed (2.1) does not mention
C++ at least in the man-page...
