 * Different from (nsd) region-allocator.h
 * 	o does not have recycle bin
 * 	o does not collect stats; just enough to answer get_mem() in use.
 * 	o does not keep cleanup list
 * 	o does not have function pointers to setup
 * 	o allocs the regional struct inside the first block.
 * 	o can take a block to create regional from.
 * 	o blocks and large allocations are kept on singly linked lists.
