+// NOTE: We checked_add here to deal with mem::forget safety. In particular
+// if you mem::forget Rcs (or Weaks), the ref-count can overflow, and then
+// you can free the allocation while outstanding Rcs (or Weaks) exist.
+// We abort because this is such a degenerate scenario that we don't care about
+// what happens -- no real program should ever experience this.
+//
+// This should have negligible overhead since you don't actually need to
+// clone these much in Rust thanks to ownership and move-semantics.
