Synopsis

Exports the symbol table as a table of strings in a DESCR block. Each string has the format "name=value". The block ends with a null string. Returns a pointer to the descriptor. The descriptor is allocated dynamically; to free it, use mem_free(). If there was not enough memory to allocate the descriptor, returns NULL. Do not call this function directly: pass through the symb2descr macro.
