 * Purpose: Manage priority queues of free-lists (of blocks of bytes).
 *      These are used in various places in the library which allocate and
 *      free differently blocks of bytes repeatedly.  Usually the same size
 *      of block is allocated and freed repeatly in a loop, while writing out
 *      chunked data for example, but the blocks may also be of different sizes
 *      from different datasets and an attempt is made to optimize access to
 *      the proper free list of blocks by using these priority queues to
 *      move frequently accessed free lists to the head of the queue.

        Robb Matzke, 2000-04-25
        If a list cannot be freed because something is using it then return
        zero (failure to free a list doesn't affect any other part of the
        library). If some other layer frees something during its termination
        it will return non-zero, which will cause this function to get called
        again to reclaim this layer's memory.
