Yes, and of course creating a new heap is going to rely on the virtual
memory functions, which can introduce new problems.  There is simply
no way to make the in-process debugger startup fool proof, and IMO the
best approach is to keep it as simple as possible. For things like
heap corruption, you should run the process under the debugger from
the beginning.
