// VLDDisable - Disables Visual Leak Detector's memory leak detection at

//   function has no effect.
//
//  Note: In multithreaded programs, this function operates on a per-thread
//    basis. In other words, if you call this function from one thread, then
//    memory leak detection is only disabled for that thread. If memory leak
//    detection is enabled for other threads, then it will remain enabled for
//    those other threads. It was designed to work this way to insulate you,
//    the programmer, from having to ensure thread synchronization when calling
//    VLDEnable() and VLDDisable(). Without this, calling these two functions
//    unsynchronized could result in unpredictable and unintended behavior.
//    But this also means that if you want to disable memory leak detection
//    process-wide, then you need to call this function from every thread in
//    the process.
