-       In contrast to #Z3_mk_context_rc, the life time of \c Z3_ast objects
-       are determined by the scope level of #Z3_solver_push and #Z3_solver_pop.
-       In other words, a \c Z3_ast object remains valid until there is a

-       the object was created.

        Note that all other reference counted objects, including \c Z3_model,
        \c Z3_solver, \c Z3_func_interp have to be managed by the caller.
        Their reference counts are not handled by the context.
