Hi Bradley,
my c++ shared pool GNU-Linux allocator and a sample main program are
enclosed in the mime .tgz tar-ball. Its an allocator which follows
section 19.4 of Bjarne Stroustrup's 3rd edition C++ manual. Its been
tested on GNU-Linux with STLPORT. Thanks for the interest. I hope
you find it of value.
