 * it can be explicitly freed later (a fundamentally unsound strategy ---
 * particularly in the presence of die()).
 *
 * Instead, we maintain pools, and allocate items (both memory and I/O
 * handlers) from the pools --- currently there are two, one for per
 * transaction info, and one for config info.  When a transaction is over,
 * we can delete everything in the per-transaction apr_pool_t without fear,
 * and without thinking too hard about it either.

 *
 * pools have nested lifetimes -- sub_pools are destroyed when the
 * parent pool is cleared.  We allow certain liberties with operations
 * on things such as tables (and on other structures in a more general
 * sense) where we allow the caller to insert values into a table which
 * were not allocated from the table's pool.  The table's data will
 * remain valid as long as all the pools from which its values are
 * allocated remain valid.
 *
 * For example, if B is a sub pool of A, and you build a table T in
 * pool B, then it's safe to insert data allocated in A or B into T
 * (because B lives at most as long as A does, and T is destroyed when
 * B is cleared/destroyed).  On the other hand, if S is a table in
 * pool A, it is safe to insert data allocated in A into S, but it
 * is *not safe* to insert data allocated from B into S... because
 * B can be cleared/destroyed before A is (which would leave dangling
 * pointers in T's data structures).
 *
 * In general we say that it is safe to insert data into a table T
 * if the data is allocated in any ancestor of T's pool.  This is the
 * basis on which the APR_POOL_DEBUG code works -- it tests these ancestor
 * relationships for all data inserted into tables.  APR_POOL_DEBUG also
 * provides tools (apr_pool_find, and apr_pool_is_ancestor) for other
 * folks to implement similar restrictions for their own data
 * structures.
 *
 * However, sometimes this ancestor requirement is inconvenient --
 * sometimes we're forced to create a sub pool (such as through
 * apr_sub_req_lookup_uri), and the sub pool is guaranteed to have
 * the same lifetime as the parent pool.  This is a guarantee implemented
 * by the *caller*, not by the pool code.  That is, the caller guarantees
 * they won't destroy the sub pool individually prior to destroying the
 * parent pool.
 *
 * In this case the caller must call apr_pool_join() to indicate this
 * guarantee to the APR_POOL_DEBUG code.  There are a few examples spread
 * through the standard modules.
 *
 * These functions are only implemented when #APR_POOL_DEBUG is set.

/*
 * Pool accessor functions.
 *
 * These standardized function are used by opaque (APR) data types to return
 * the apr_pool_t that is associated with the data type.
 *
 * APR_POOL_DECLARE_ACCESSOR() is used in a header file to declare the
 * accessor function. A typical usage and result would be:
 *
 *    APR_POOL_DECLARE_ACCESSOR(file);
 * becomes:
 *    APR_DECLARE(apr_pool_t *) apr_file_pool_get(apr_file_t *ob);
 *
 * In the implementation, the APR_POOL_IMPLEMENT_ACCESSOR() is used to
 * actually define the function. It assumes the field is named "pool". For
 * data types with a different field name (e.g. "cont" or "cntxt") the
 * APR_POOL_IMPLEMENT_ACCESSOR_X() macro should be used.
 *
 * Note: the linkage is specified for APR. It would be possible to expand
 *       the macros to support other linkages.
