function to have this property, which is stronger than monotonicity.)

Got it. That's a rather subtle requirement, so I changed the code to 
keep things simple for the user:

https://github.com/andralex/phobos/commit/9307b9f8969b7bfd0906e0441a13cbbded7f8418

- If b.ptr is null, then line 113 is bad in case goodAllocSize(0) > 0.

That should be fixed in the same commit; I just handle expansion of null 
blocks up front in expand().


Thanks,
