I guess I should have asked a broader question regarding CM/2 and OS/2 2.1
memory allocation.

Under the 16-bit version (including ES under OS/2 2.x), I had to allocate
tiled memory and use the fALLOCSHR flag, which sets OBJ_GIVABLE and
OBJ_GETTABLE (among others).  The CM/ES daemons would get access to these
regions (increasing their usage count) upon usage of APPC (CPI-C) APIs.
This caused my programs to be prone to memory leaks (through multiple
invocations) unless I took explicit precautions.

My general question is: Is this all still true with CM/2 1.0 and above?
Can I allocate 32-bit regions?  Can I use automatic (stack) storage?

Again - thanks in advance for your response(s).
