xalloc - memory allocation with error checking
==============================================

Description
-----------

This simple library contains wrappers for memory allocating C
functions.  The names of the functions match the original ones with a
prepended `x', like in xmalloc.

If no more memory is available when any of these functions are called,
the program is aborted with an error message.  The program abortion
may be overridden by setting a user defined error handler, and
installing it using xaSetErrFunc.  If the user defined error handler
does not abort the program, the functions return NULL to indicate
failure.
