/*

@deftypefn Replacement void* xmalloc (size_t)

Allocate memory without fail.  If @code{malloc} fails, this will print
a message to @code{stderr} (using the name set by
@code{xmalloc_set_program_name},
if any) and then call @code{xexit}.  Note that it is therefore safe for
a program to contain @code{#define malloc xmalloc} in its source.

@end deftypefn

@deftypefn Replacement void* xrealloc (void *@var{ptr}, size_t @var{size})
Reallocate memory without fail.  This routine functions like @code{realloc},
but will behave the same as @code{xmalloc} if memory cannot be found.

@end deftypefn

@deftypefn Replacement void* xcalloc (size_t @var{nelem}, size_t @var{elsize})

Allocate memory without fail, and set it to zero.  This routine functions
like @code{calloc}, but will behave the same as @code{xmalloc} if memory
cannot be found.

@end deftypefn

@deftypefn Replacement void xmalloc_set_program_name (const char *@var{name})

You can use this to set the name of the program used by
@code{xmalloc_failed} when printing a failure message.

@end deftypefn

@deftypefn Replacement void xmalloc_failed (size_t)

This function is not meant to be called by client code, and is listed
here for completeness only.  If any of the allocation routines fail, this
function will be called to print an error message and terminate execution.

@end deftypefn
