+/*
+ * Nasty internal details ahead...
+ *
+ * File curl_memory.h must be included by _all_ *.c source files
+ * that use memory related functions strdup, malloc, calloc, realloc
+ * or free, and given source file is used to build libcurl library.
+ *
+ * There is nearly no exception to above rule. All libcurl source
+ * files in 'lib' subdirectory as well as those living deep inside
+ * 'packages' subdirectories and linked together in order to build
+ * libcurl library shall follow it.
+ *
+ * File lib/strdup.c is an exception, given that it provides a strdup
+ * clone implementation while using malloc. Extra care needed inside
+ * this one. TODO: revisit this paragraph and related code.
+ *
+ * The need for curl_memory.h inclusion is due to libcurl's feature
+ * of allowing library user to provide memory replacement functions,
+ * memory callbacks, at runtime with curl_global_init_mem()
+ *
+ * Any *.c source file used to build libcurl library that does not
+ * include curl_memory.h and uses any memory function of the five
+ * mentioned above will compile without any indication, but it will
+ * trigger weird memory related issues at runtime.
+ *
+ * OTOH some source files from 'lib' subdirectory may additionally be
+ * used directly as source code when using some curlx_ functions by
+ * third party programs that don't even use libcurl at all. When using
+ * these source files in this way it is necessary these are compiled
+ * with CURLX_NO_MEMORY_CALLBACKS defined, in order to ensure that no
+ * attempt of calling libcurl's memory callbacks is done from code
+ * which can not use this machinery.
+ *
+ * Notice that libcurl's 'memory tracking' system works chaining into
+ * the memory callback machinery. This implies that when compiling
+ * 'lib' source files with CURLX_NO_MEMORY_CALLBACKS defined this file
+ * disengages usage of libcurl's 'memory tracking' system, defining
+ * MEMDEBUG_NODEFINES and overriding CURLDEBUG purpose.
+ *
+ * CURLX_NO_MEMORY_CALLBACKS takes precedence over CURLDEBUG. This is
+ * done in order to allow building a 'memory tracking' enabled libcurl
+ * and at the same time allow building programs which do not use it.
+ *
+ * Programs and libraries in 'tests' subdirectories have specific
+ * purposes and needs, and as such each one will use whatever fits
+ * best, depending additionally wether it links with libcurl or not.
+ *
+ * Caveat emptor. Proper curlx_* separation is a work in progress
+ * the same as CURLX_NO_MEMORY_CALLBACKS usage, some adjustments may
+ * still be required. IOW don't use them yet, there are sharp edges.
