/*
* WARNING:
* We align/round the *SIZE* per below
* so that all pointers returned by
* this function are reasonably well
* aligned.
*
* If we did not, then an "odd-length" request would cause the
* *next* allocation to be at an *odd* address, and because
* this function has the same type of api as malloc() - we
* must also return pointers that have the same type of
* alignment.
*
* What I do not/have is a reasonable portable means
* to align by...
*
* The solution here, is based on these suggestions.
