[gnutls-devel] GnuTLS | doc: discourage use of gnutls_malloc/gnutls_free by applications (!2032)

[Read-only notification of GnuTLS library development activities]

Daniel P_ Berrangé commented on a discussion: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/merge_requests/2032#note_2853496334


IMHO, if gnutls were to attempt to switch to a different non-system allocator by default it is highly likely to cause breakage in applications, as they can reasonably assume the system allocator is always going to be used in the absence of a call to `gnutls_global_set_mem_functions`. Agreed that un-deprecating the function is possible.
