/** @defgroup EGmem EGmem
 *
 * Here we define some usefull macros to deal with memory issues, for example,
 * assert that we always return memory when posible, and if no memory is found,
 * then we just exit to the system (because if there is trully no memory....
 * there is no much else to do... unless we start using shrinkable memory
 * pools, like for example @ref EGmemSlab , but that is still a long way off,
 * it will also perform (if debugging enabled) some allocation / freeing
 * checkings and so on.
 *
 * @version 0.0.1
 * @par History:
 * -2005-09-05
 * 					- Add EGrealloc, wich is a wrapper of realloc but that assures us
 * 					to have memory, if there is no  memory, we exit. The idea of these
 * 					functions is that in the future they would interact with the
 * 					memory pools to use any memory still in the pools.
 * -2005-08-20
 * 					- Move memory align definitions here, and set the aligment of
 * 						memory to 8 bytes (i.e. 64 bits). This is to simplify compilation
 * 						in diferent architectures like Sun, opteron 64 and intel 32.
 * -2005-08-01
 * 					- Fix calloc call to the right type (size_t), and some printing
 * 						issues while compiling on 64-bit architectures.
 * -2005-07-30
 * 					- First Implementation
