| Bump the allocation of the array pointed to by TABLE whenever required. |

/* Routines `xmalloc' and `xrealloc' are called to do the actual memory
management. This implies that the program will abort with an `Memory
exhausted!' error if any problem arise.
To work correctly, at least EXPONENT and TYPE should always be the
same for all uses of this macro for any given TABLE. A secure way to
achieve this is to never use this macro directly, but use it to define
other macros, which would then be TABLE-specific.
The first time through, COUNT is usually zero. Note that COUNT is not
updated by this macro, but it should be update elsewhere, later. This
is convenient, because it allows TABLE[COUNT] to refer to the new
element at the end. Once its construction is completed, COUNT++ will
record it in the table. Calling this macro several times in a row
without updating COUNT is a bad thing to do. */
