    Version  : 1.0	Sat, Mar 4, 1989	C. Lins

    Component: Tool - JPI M2SCL Storage Management Utility

    INTRODUCTION
    This module provides facilities for allocation and deallocation of
	dynamic memory.  The routines are compatible with the JPI Storage
	module. Allocate differs from ALLOCATE in returning NIL
	if unsuccessful instead of HALTing. Deallocate does nothing if
	the given pointer is NIL, otherwise NIL is returned.
