       The  explain_malloc_or_die function is used to call the malloc(3) system call.  On failure an explanation
       will be printed to stderr, obtained from explain_malloc(3), and then the process  terminates  by  calling
       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).

       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
              void *result = explain_malloc_or_die(size);

       size    The size, exactly as to be passed to the malloc(3) system call.

       Returns:
               This function only returns on success.  On failure, prints an explanation and exits.
