Each chunk of memory has a small chunk of data on either side of it.
The BEFORE chunk comes just before the memory, and the AFTER chunk
comes just after it.  The AFTER chunk is just before the BEFORE chunk
of the next memory region.  Each end chunk points to the other chunk,
which is how we keep track of the chunk sizes and such.
