+.PP
+The procedures \fBckalloc\fR, \fBckfree\fR, \fBckrealloc\fR,
+\fBattemptckalloc\fR, and \fBattemptckrealloc\fR are implemented
+as macros.  Normally, they are synonyms for the correponding
+procedures documented on this page.  When Tcl and all modules
+calling Tcl are compiled with \fBTCL_MEM_DEBUG\fR defined, however,
+these macros are redefined to be special debugging versions of 
+of these procedures.  To support Tcl's memory debugging within a
+module, use the macros rather than direct calls to \fBTcl_Alloc\fR, etc.
