+//! Allocation helper functions that allow data to be allocated in Rust
+//! using tor's specified allocator. In doing so, this can be later freed
+//! from C.
+//!
+//! This is currently a temporary solution, we will later use tor's allocator
+//! by default for any allocation that occurs in Rust. However, as this will
+//! stabalize in 2018, we can use this as a temporary measure.
