I think that should have been named DACreateMatrix(). Other XGetY() are
just accessors which create a managed object if needed. When there is a
Get/Restore pair, it implies that the access to that managed resource
has some sort of exclusivity. I think
{Get,Restore}{Local,Global}Vector() are actually the only functions with
that naming scheme that really manage a pool.
