00106  * The default callback outputs trace data using 'printf', in a format that's

00108  * outputs a line that begins with '#<op>:<0xresult>;<0xcaller>-':
00109  *
00110  * - 'op' identifies the memory operation ('m' for 'malloc', 'r' for 'realloc',
00111  *   'c' for 'calloc' and 'f' for 'free').
00112  * - 'result' (base 16) is the result of the memor operation. This is always NULL
00113  *   for 'free', since 'free' doesn't return anything.

00115  *   of 'caller' might be unreliable.
00116  *
00117  * The rest of the output depends on the operation being traced:
00118  *
00119  * - for 'malloc': 'size', where 'size' is the original argument to 'malloc'.
00120  * - for 'realloc': '0xptr;size', where 'ptr' (base 16) and 'size' are the original arguments to 'realloc'.
00121  * - for 'calloc': 'nmemb;size', where 'nmemb' and 'size' are the original arguments to 'calloc'.
00122  * - for 'free': '0xptr', where 'ptr' (base 16) is the original argument to 'free'.
00123  *
00124  * Examples:
00125  *
00126  * - '#m:0x20003240;0x600d-50' encodes a 'malloc' that returned 0x20003240, was called
00127  *   by the instruction at 0x600D with a the 'size' argument equal to 50.
00128  * - '#f:0x0;0x602f-0x20003240' encodes a 'free' that was called by the instruction at
00129  *   0x602f with the 'ptr' argument equal to 0x20003240.
