**
**  This file contains the functions of  GASMAN,  the  GAP  storage  manager.
**
**  Gasman is the  GAP storage manager.  That  means that the other parts  of
**  GAP  request  memory  areas  from Gasman.   These  are  then  filled with
**  information.  Gasman cares about the allocation of those memory areas and
**  the collection of unused areas.  Thus these operations are transparent to
**  the rest of GAP,  enabling the programmer to concentrate on his algorithm
**  instead of caring about memory allocation and deallocation.
**
**  The basic thing is  the bag.  This is simply  a continous area of  memory
**  containing any information, including references to other bags.  If a bag
**  contains  references to other bags these  references are collected at the
**  beginning of the bag.  A bag together  with all bags he references direct
**  or indirect, is called an object.  New bags are created with 'NewBag'.
**
**  When you  create  a bag using  'NewBag' this  functions returns  a unique
**  pointer identifying this bag, this  pointer is called  a handle and is of
**  type 'TypHandle'.  You  specify this handle  as  first argument to  every
**  storage manager function as first argument.  Variables containing handles
**  should begin with 'hd' to make the code more readable.
**
**  Every bag belongs to a certain type, specifying what information this bag
**  contains and how  bags of this type  are evaluated.  You specify the type
**  when creating the bag, you can retrieve it using the macro 'TYPE'.
**
**  Every bag has a size, which is the size of the memory area in bytes.  You
**  specify this size when you create the bag, you can  change it later using
**  'Resize' and retrieve it later using the macro 'SIZE'.

**  For  every type of bags  there is a symbolic  name defined for this type.
**  The types *must* be sorted in the following order:

**  Type of the non-printing object:       'T_VOID',
**  Types of objects that lie in a field:  'T_INT'      to  'T_FFE',
**  Types of objects that lie in a group:  'T_PERM'     to  'T_AGWORD',
**  Types of other unstructured objects:   'T_BOOL'     to  'T_FUNCINT',
**  Types of lists:                        'T_LIST'     to  'T_RANGE',
**  Type of records:                       'T_REC',
**  Extended types of lists (see list.c):  'T_MATRIX'   to  'T_LISTX'
**  Types related to variables:            'T_VAR'      to  'T_RECASS',
**  Types of binary operators:             'T_SUM'      to  'T_COMM',

**
**  The types of  changable objects must  lie  between 'T_LIST' and  'T_VAR'.

*T  TypHandle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . type of the identification of a bag
**
**  'TypHandle' is the type of the  pointer  that  identifies  a  bag.  I.e.,
**  every object has a handle and no two used  bags  have  the  same  handle.
**  This handle is returned by 'NewBag' and passed to every  Gasman  function
**  to identify this bag.
**
**  The handle of a is a pointer to a structure that contains  the  following
**  important information for this bag:
**
**  'type'  the type  of  this  bag, the possible values are  defined  above.
**  'size'  the size  of  this  bag  (this  objects  data  block)  in  bytes.
**  'ptr'   the pointer  to  the  place  where  this  objects  data  resides.
**
**  The type 'TypHandle' is defined in the declaration part of  this  package
**  as follows:
**
typedef struct TypHeader {
    unsigned char       type;
    unsigned char       name[3];

**  Using this pointer  you can then read  information from the bag or  write
**  information  to it.  The  pointer  is of type   pointer to handles, i.e.,
**  'PTR(<hd>)[0]' is the handle of the first subbag of the bag, etc.  If the
**  bag  contains data in a different  format, you have   to cast the pointer
**  returned by 'PTR', e.g., '(long*)PTR(<hd>)'.
**
**  Note that pointers  are fragile as bags  move  during garbage collection,
**  that is the  value returned by  'PTR'  might differ between  two calls if
**  'NewBag', 'Resize', or  any function that might  call those functions, is

**
**  'Size' is an array, that contains for every possible type the information
**  how large the handle area and the data area are.
**
**  'Size[<type>].handles' is the size of the handle area in bytes, i.e., the
**  size of the part at the beginning of the bag which contains handles.
**
**  'Size[<type>].data' is the size of the data area in bytes, i.e., the size
**  of the part following the handle area which stores arbitrary data.
**
**  'Size[<type>].name' is the name of the type <type>.  This is useful  when
**  debugging GAP, but is otherwise ignored.
**
**  For example, 'SIZE[T_FFE].handles' is  'SIZE_HD'  and  'Size[T_FFE].data'
**  is 'sizeof(short)', that means the finite field elements have one handle,
**  referring to the finite field, and one short value, which is the value of
**  this finite field element, i.e., the discrete logarithm.
**
**  Either value may also be negative, which  means  that  the  size  of  the
**  corresponding area has a variable size.
**
**  For example, 'Size[T_VAR].handles' is 'SIZE_HD' and 'Size[T_VAR].data' is
**  -1, which means that variable bags have one handle, for the value of  the
**  variable, and a variable sized data area, for the name of the identifier.
**
**  For example, 'SIZE[T_LIST].handles' is '-SIZE_HD' and 'Size[T_LIST].data'
**  is '0', which means that a list has a variable number of handles, for the
**  elements of the list, and no other data.
**
**  If both values are negative both areas are variable sized.  The ratio  of
**  the sizes is fix, and is given by the ratio of the two values in  'Size'.
**
**  I can not give you an example,  because no such type is currently in use.

**
**  'EnterKernel' and 'ExitKernel'  are used by Gasman to  decide  which bags
**  are still used and which can be thrown away during  a garbage collection.
**  These functions are used   like brackets, i.e., for  every  'EnterKernel'
**  call there must follow exactely one corresponding 'ExitKernel' call.
**
**  All bags created before the first call to 'EnterKernel' are never garbage
**  collected.  This rule ensures that  all bags that  are created during the
**  initialization like   the identifier  table  bag are  never  thrown away.
**  Together with the  rule  that  no subobject of   a  used object  is   not
**  collected this ensures that no object  that has a  name at the GAP level,
**  i.e., that is a subobject in the identifier table is thrown away.
**
**  A bag created  after a call to 'EnterKernel'  is not collected before the
**  corresponding 'ExitKernel' call. This rule ensures  that no bag is thrown
**  away before it could be entered into a superobject.
**
**  If the handle passed to 'ExitKernel' is not 0 it is treated as though the
**  corresponding bag has been created after  the 'ExitKernel' call.  This is
**  important to save the result of a computation.
**
**  If the handle passed to 'ExitKernel' has the special value 2, this  means
**  an error occured and the user quitted to  the  main  read-eval-print-loop
**  and that all bags execpt those  created  before  the  first 'EnterKernel'
**  call and their subobjects are canidates for collection.  I.e.,  it  works
**  as a meta-bracket closing all open 'EnterKernel' brackets.
**
**  Calling 'EnterKernel' and  'ExitKernel'  is  done during evaluation    of
**  statments  and GAP  functions, they must  not be  called from  elsewhere.
**  Calling 'EnterKernel' but forgetting to  call 'ExitKernel' will result in
**  some bags  being    uncollectable, thereby eating up    available  space.
**  Calling 'ExitKernel' with  calling  'EnterKernel' will  remove  everthing
