GPL C++ allocator

[Marc D Bumble]

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.
