No, and this is the point at which you get stuck. The arena base address is
whatever the heck libc malloc returned when we asked for 256KB. There's no
way to deduce that from the addresses *within* the arena.

It would be possible to store both the arena index *and* the arena base
address in each pool header. Then we could check that
poolheader* p = pool_address(some_memory_address);
if (p->arenaindex < narenas &&
arenas[p->arenaindex] == p->arenabase) {
it's a pymalloc address
}
else {
it isn't
}
I like that. Thanks!
