In general, no memory is allocated for types of any kind. Memory is
allocated for objects. All memory allocated for objects is allocated
during run time. The important question is where that memory is
allocated: on the stack or on the heap. For unconstrained objects of a
variant-record type, the answer is compiler dependent.
