mmalloca() and freea() in the other case are not critical, because they
are only invoked for big memory sizes. */

distinguish a mmalloca() result and an alloca() result.
Although it is possible that the same pointer is returned by alloca() and
by mmalloca() at different times in the same application, it does not lead
to a bug in freea(), because:
- Before a pointer returned by alloca() can point into malloc()ed memory,
the function must return, and once this has happened the programmer must
not call freea() on it anyway.
- Before a pointer returned by mmalloca() can point into the stack, it
must be freed. The only function that can free it is freea(), and
when freea() frees it, it also removes it from the hash table. */
