+    Determine if two arrays can share memory
+
+    The memory-bounds of a and b are computed.  If they overlap then
+    this function returns True.  Otherwise, it returns False.
+
+    A return of True does not necessarily mean that the two arrays
+    share any element.  It just means that they *might*.
