  25 /* These routines allocate space for an object.  The assumption is
  26    that the object will want to allocate space as it goes along, but
  27    will never want to free any particular block.  There is a function
  28    to free a block, which also frees all more recently allocated
  29    blocks.  There is also a function to free all the allocated space.
  30
  31    This is essentially a specialization of obstacks.  The main
  32    difference is that a block may not be allocated a bit at a time.
  33    Another difference is that these routines are always built on top
  34    of malloc, and always pass an malloc failure back to the caller,
  35    unlike more recent versions of obstacks.  */
