@node realloc
@section @code{realloc}
@findex realloc

POSIX specification:@* @url{http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/realloc.html}

Gnulib module: realloc-posix

Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@item
Upon failure, the function does not set @code{errno} to @code{ENOMEM} on
some platforms:
mingw.
@end itemize

Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
@itemize
@end itemize

Extension: Gnulib provides a module @samp{realloc-gnu} that substitutes a
@code{realloc} implementation that behaves more like the glibc implementation.
