I guess when dealing with Obj-C objects, NSZombieEnabled=YES together
with NSDeallocateZombies=NO does #2 and sorta does #3.

But, as I said, I was wondering if there is a way to extend this to all
allocations (ie non-objects).  Additionally, NSZombieEnabled does
nothing under GC, and I'd be interesting in knowing if there is
something similar for that case.
