Sorry it's been so long since I've posted here; I've been hoping to be able to
wait until I have something useful to say.  But I figured I'd give an
end-of-year update in any case.  We've made a lot of progress on getting the
heap-checker and -profiler to work on modern kernels; it basically involved
rewriting that functionality from scratch.  We still have a few more changes
pending, and the folks working on it have been overwhelmed by other projects, so
it hasn't gone as quickly as I'd like. :-(

That said, the tcmalloc_minimal library should work on all FC versions, as far
as I know.  So it would be possible to push that library, and wait until we have
a fix for all the profiling tools before pushing the full package, if you wanted
to try that.  If there are problems with tcmalloc_minimal, please file them as
separate bugs from the normal 'doesn't work on FC5/6' category, since it would
be a separate issue from the ones we know about.
