/*{\Mexample In the first example we store a pair of boolean values
which normally fit into one word. Thus there will no heap allocation
take place.
\begin{Mverb}
struct A { bool a,b };
GenPtr a;
geninfo<A>::create(a);
A& a_access = geninfo<A>::access(a);
geninfo<A>::clear(a);
\end{Mverb}
The second example uses the heap scheme as two longs do not fit into
one word.
\begin{Mverb}
struct B { long a,b };
GenPtr b;
geninfo<B>::create(b);
B& b_access = geninfo<B>::access(b);
geninfo<B>::clear(b);
\end{Mverb}
Note that usage of the scheme takes away with the actual check for the
type size. Even more important this size might depend on the platform
which is used to compile the code and thus the scheme enables platform
independent programming.}*/
