Description
It seems detour_alloc_region_from_hi should try alloc something with the address related to "mbi.BaseAddress", but detour_alloc_round_down_to_region in that snippet uses "mbi.AllocationBase".
I get that information when I chatting with my friends. I try to find why introduce the "mbi.AllocationBase" in that snippet but I'm finally confused. So, I think I should post an issue for ask.

Start in src/detours.cpp at lines 1385-1408 and trace detour_alloc_region_from_hi through detour_alloc_round_down_to_region. Compare the roles of mbi.BaseAddress and mbi.AllocationBase in this allocation path, then determine whether the code needs a change or the issue needs a documented explanation. No test entry point is mentioned.
