Warnings / Compiler switch for secure programming

Hello Matthias,
I think there have been discussions about such kind of switches. Yet,
there's actually no reason for not allowing "insecure" (as in: C-like)
code. It's not a bug, it's a real feature, to stay compatible to C! And
yes, this also implies manual memory management with malloc & friends,
as those are meant to be used within time/speed-critical applications
(e.g.: games [not so critical, but it's appreciated to have a game
running with low latency]) and applications with lots of managed memory.
There are approaches with memory pools in that regard, though I don't
know if they are open source or available anywhere.
Kind regards,
Alex
