+;;; Managing a memory area for temporary "objects".
;;;
+;;; Object space is allocated cyclically, starting subsequent to prior
+;;; allocation and cycling back when requested object size exceeds
+;;; the space edge. The "inital" part, which starts as empty, is
+;;; considered "held" space that is not reused when cycling back, and
+;;; apart from allowing for this, the space management is left open.
