This turned out to be a long-standing to-do item completely overlooked by
me.  I had run into some namespace conflicts when writing the module and, in
order to just get thing running for another project, I simply dumped the
whole thing into std.

I've just posted a revised version of the entire BTI Core Library to our web
site, and it includes a couple of updates to this allocator.  Most
importantly, everything except the specialization of the traits structs has
been placed into the bti namespace (which is where the rest of the library
resides).

I'd be interested to hear if anyone has implemented this module (or any of
them, for that matter) and what they found.  Our library is actively
maintained, so bug reports and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers!
