But never released. So if the program released all memory then it
wouldn't have any backtrace lines in the output log ?

Another question (I'm not an expert on linux :P), it outputs after the
program exits. If mine goes into the background,
ie: ./pircsrv > log.out &
Would this be correct to get the ghl output ?
./pircsrv > log.out & 2>mem.txt

Also I'd like to see an example of a proper Makefile for FPC written
programs, as I think most of my units are not compiled with debugging
info...

thank you :)
