+// A pointer value is captured if the function makes a copy of any part of the
+// pointer that outlives the call. Not being captured means, more or less, that
+// the pointer is only dereferenced and not stored in a global. Returning part
+// of the pointer as the function return value may or may not count as capturing
+// the pointer, depending on the context.
