22  *       Expandable pointer stack for arbitrary void* data.
23  *
24  *       The L_Stack is an array of void * ptrs, onto which arbitrary
25  *       objects can be stored.  At any time, the number of
26  *       stored objects is stack->n.  The object at the bottom
27  *       of the stack is at array[0]; the object at the top of
28  *       the stack is at array[n-1].  New objects are added
29  *       to the top of the stack, at the first available location,
30  *       which is array[n].  Objects are removed from the top of the
31  *       stack.  When an attempt is made to remove an object from an
32  *       empty stack, the result is null.   When the stack becomes
33  *       filled, so that n = nalloc, the size is doubled.
34  *
35  *       The auxiliary stack can be used to store and remove
36  *       objects for re-use.  It must be created by a separate
37  *       call to pstackCreate().  [Just imagine the chaos if
38  *       pstackCreate() created the auxiliary stack!]
39  *       pstackDestroy() checks for the auxiliary stack and removes it.
