Comment (by cornedbee):

 PTree's design (which predates my stewardship) makes custom allocators
 tricky. Stateless allocators can be done without too much trouble, but
 stateful allocators are inefficient (needs an allocation and refcounting)
 and complicated to implement (since you don't want to penalize the
 stateless case).
