 | See attached patch for a way to fix this with the pool allocators.
 
 I agree with your patch.
 
 The following comment is for possible improvements.  What about using
 
    if (__builtin_expect(__ret == 0, 0))
        __throw_bad_alloc("allocate::allocate");
 
 ?
 That gives a hint to the compiler that the branch is expected to be
 taken very unfrequently, and it should make scheduling accordingly.
 
 In general, I would like to see us starting using use __builtin_expect()
 at places where we do checks for limits cases.  Thoughts?
