121    otherwise, reallocate P so that it contains more than *PN objects
122    each of S bytes.  *PN must be nonzero unless P is null, and S must
123    be nonzero.  Set *PN to the new number of objects, and return the
124    pointer to the new block.  *PN is never set to zero, and the
125    returned pointer is never null.
126 
127    Repeated reallocations are guaranteed to make progress, either by
128    allocating an initial block with a nonzero size, or by allocating a
129    larger block.
130 
131    In the following implementation, nonzero sizes are doubled so that
132    repeated reallocations have O(N log N) overall cost rather than
133    O(N**2) cost, but the specification for this function does not
134    guarantee that sizes are doubled.
135 
136    Here is an example of use:
137 
138      int *p = NULL;
139      size_t used = 0;
140      size_t allocated = 0;
141 
142      void
143      append_int (int value)
144        {
145 	 if (used == allocated)
146 	   p = x2nrealloc (p, &allocated, sizeof *p);
147 	 p[used++] = value;
148        }
149 
150    This causes x2nrealloc to allocate a block of some nonzero size the
151    first time it is called.
152 
153    To have finer-grained control over the initial size, set *PN to a
154    nonzero value before calling this function with P == NULL.  For
155    example:
156 
157      int *p = NULL;
158      size_t used = 0;
159      size_t allocated = 0;
160      size_t allocated1 = 1000;
161 
162      void
163      append_int (int value)
164        {
165 	 if (used == allocated)
166 	   {
167 	     p = x2nrealloc (p, &allocated1, sizeof *p);
168 	     allocated = allocated1;
169 	   }
170 	 p[used++] = value;
171        }
