     29  * The purpose of this header is to define the macros ALLOCATE_LOCAL and
     30  * DEALLOCATE_LOCAL appropriately for the platform being compiled on.
     31  * These macros are used to make fast, function-local memory allocations.
     32  * Their characteristics are as follows:
     33  *
     34  * void *ALLOCATE_LOCAL(int size)
     35  *    Returns a pointer to size bytes of memory, or NULL if the allocation
     36  *    failed.  The memory must be freed with DEALLOCATE_LOCAL before the
     37  *    function that made the allocation returns.  You should not ask for
     38  *    large blocks of memory with this function, since on many platforms
     39  *    the memory comes from the stack, which may have limited size.
     40  *
     41  * void DEALLOCATE_LOCAL(void *)
     42  *    Frees the memory allocated by ALLOCATE_LOCAL.  Omission of this
     43  *    step may be harmless on some platforms, but will result in
     44  *    memory leaks or worse on others.
     45  *
     46  * Before including this file, you should define two macros,
     47  * ALLOCATE_LOCAL_FALLBACK and DEALLOCATE_LOCAL_FALLBACK, that have the
     48  * same characteristics as ALLOCATE_LOCAL and DEALLOCATE_LOCAL.  The
     49  * header uses the fallbacks if it doesn't know a "better" way to define
     50  * ALLOCATE_LOCAL and DEALLOCATE_LOCAL.  Typical usage would be:
     51  *
     52  *    #define ALLOCATE_LOCAL_FALLBACK(_size) malloc(_size)
     53  *    #define DEALLOCATE_LOCAL_FALLBACK(_ptr) free(_ptr)
     54  *    #include "Xalloca.h"
