I don't need to approximate it, but I'd like to be able to track it,
in the sense of being able to measure the heap allocations as they are
being performed.

For instance, is it possible to entirely replace the malloc/free
called by the LLVM libraries with my own implementation? This would
achieve my goals, as I'm not against heap allocations, I just need to
be able to measure them.
