We now have heap allocation wired up in lustc. This means that its time to start thinking about garbage collection. For now I have wrapped malloc in an alloc function. In 164 Hilfinger uses a similar method and I believe that later we ought to be able to add some machinery to alloc to track allocations and later garbage collect.
