rel-alloc ? Are you talking about the relocatable allocator ? I used to
compile xemacs with src/ralloc.c. I think I was using the MMAP scheme. I
can have a look to my old patches if you are interested. How evever, it
compiled, I have been using it quite heavily (gnus!) but  I have no
evidence that the reallocation stuff was actually working.
