I think it's counterintuitive if you allocate a size other than that
requested.

Note my patch only fixes the initial allocation - all subsequent
allocations are handled by different code in obstack.c that does not
have the bug; and does not use h->chunk_size after calling the
allocation routine.  So the patch is also making obstack.c internally
self-consistent.
