**  FREEBUF.C -- more routines for LIFO dynamic buffer allocation [need.c]
**
**	These routines allow the deallocation of a need() type buffer,
**	and also using the same buffer for various SERIALIZED purposes
**	by marking the end of one, beginning of the next.
**
**	Defines:
**		freebuf()
**		markbuf()
**		seterr()
**
**	Requires:
**		that the buffer structure be IDENTICAL to that in [need.c]
**
**	History:
**		10/12/78 -- (marc) separated from [need.c] so that processes
**			not using more that need() and initbuf() wouldn't load
**			it.
