This was true in Apache 1.3 but I don't think it's true in APR... as far
as I can see, you have to explicitly register an "apr_abort" function
with the pool, else the *alloc functions will just return NULL if
malloc() ever returns NULL.

And you can't seem to register an apr_abort function using
apr_create_pool, only with make_sub_pool... which seems wrong; maybe I'm
missing something.
