I have used dmalloc and ElectricFence. Both are very helpful.

In the past I found it very useful to compile with ParaSoft's Insure
during development. It flushes an enormous quantity of subtle
problems.  It is not OSS, and costs quite a bit of money, but it is
worth considering for a company. I don't remember what the cost or the
exact license terms were (IIRC it was a site licence for multiple
developers), but it should be easy to find out from
http://www.parasoft.com (NB: URL from memory), or from Linux-IL
members who are using it.
