What has 'alloc' to do with cleaning/zeroing?
It is *the* difference between GetMem and AllocMem.
Not in FPC. Reallocmem just resizes. No zeroing is done, as already
explained
by Jonas and Daniel.
Yes, but allocmem() does zero the allocated memory (although our
documentation at http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/
allocmem.html claims it's the same as getmem, that's not true -- I
guess because in Delphi it also zeroes the allocated memory with
allocmem).
