  Aren't C++ compilers already stressed enough? Think about all the problems
they would have with user-defined operators, with their own precedence
rules, ambiguous situations, etc... :P

  You usually use the STL data containers for dynamically allocated
memory, and if what you need is to allocate a single object, you can
use a smart pointer (I posted in the other group an URL to one smart
pointer implementation I have made).

  Doesn't do what?
