+/* string blocks
+
+ I had a couple of choices when deciding upon this data structure.
+ gas uses null terminated strings for all its internal work. This
+ often means that parts of the program that want to examine
+ substrings have to manipulate the data in the string to do the
+ right thing (a common operation is to single out a bit of text by
+ saving away the character after it, nulling it out, operating on
+ the substring and then replacing the character which was under the
+ null). This is a pain and I remember a load of problems that I had with
+ code in gas which almost got this right. Also, it's harder to grow and
+ allocate null terminated strings efficiently.
+
+ Obstacks provide all the functionality needed, but are too
+ complicated, hence the sb.
+
+ An sb is allocated by the caller, and is initialzed to point to an
+ sb_element. sb_elements are kept on a free lists, and used when
+ needed, replaced onto the free list when unused.
