/* This package works by allocating blocks from a zone of memory
   above that used by malloc ().  When malloc needs more space that
   would enter our zone, we relocate blocks upward.  The bottom of
   our zone is kept in the variable `virtual_break_value'.  The top
   of our zone is indicated by `real_break_value'.

   As blocks are freed, a free list is maintained and we attempt
   to satisfy further requests for space using a first-fit policy.
   If there are holes, but none fit, memory is compacted and a new
   block is obtained at the top of the zone.

   NOTE that our blocks are always rounded to page boundaries. */

/*
   NOTES:

   Once this is stable, I can speed things up by intially leaving a large
   gap between real_break_value and true_break_value, or maybe making
   a large hole before the first block.

   If we also kept track of size_wanted, we could gain some
   extra space upon compactification.

   Perhaps we should just note a hole when malloc does doing sbrk(-n)?

   Relocating downward upon freeing the first block would simplify
   other things.

   When r_alloc places a block in a hole, we could easily check if there's
   much more than required, and leave a hole.
