76    and frees memory by calling the functions that are pointed to by the
77    \fBpcre_stack_malloc\fP and \fBpcre_stack_free\fP variables. By default, these
78    point to \fBmalloc()\fP and \fBfree()\fP, but you can replace the pointers to
79    cause PCRE to use your own functions. Since the block sizes are always the
80    same, and are always freed in reverse order, it may be possible to implement
81    customized memory handlers that are more efficient than the standard functions.
