On Windows RexxAllocateMemory uses GlobalAlloc, whose docs state "The
global functions have greater overhead and provide fewer features than
other memory management functions. New applications should use the heap
functions .."

The mentioned heap functions are HeapAlloc/HeapFree, but require an initial
HeapCreate and a final HeapDestroy.

On Unix RexxAllocateMemory uses standard malloc.

Might it be worth migrating away from GlobalAlloc?  If so, to which of the
two options?
