    There's no correlation between PyArenas and the extensive use of the
    term "arena" in obmalloc.c, right?

    I initially assumed there was, based solely on the common use of
    the term arena.  However, after more investigation, it *appears*
    as though there's absolutely no correlation.  Just wanted to make
    100% sure.


        Trent.
