If you are using a custom allocator to allocate memory then you 
also
have to manually dispose of the memory when it is no longer 
needed.

You can't have a custom allocator to supply you with the memory 
and
then have the GC track and dispose of it. I get the feeling that 
this
is what you were looking for?
