Is Linux Mint ANSI-C compliant?

I am experiencing growing memory leaks on Linux Mint 20.1. I found a source-forge program that claims to be able to pinpoint the leaks.
However, the warning:
"MEMWATCH has two functions called 'mwIsReadAddr()' and 'mwIsSafeAddr()', which are system-specific. If they are implemented for your system, and works correctly, MEMWATCH will identify garbage pointers and avoid causing segmentation faults, GP's etc.
If they are NOT implemented, count on getting the core dumped when running this test program! As of this writing, the safe-address checking has been implemented for Win32 and ANSI-C compliant systems. The ANSI-C checking traps SIGSEGV and uses setjmp/longjmp to resume processing."
