-
- Which, of course, would make it horribly unorthagonal with placement
- new. Unless we also change placement new to use {...} (as was the
- case with early versions of g++). Which, of course, would break so
- many existing programs as to be unthinkable.
-
- Would it be worth it to change the syntax of placement new, making the
- old syntax a depricated feature (like strstream), so that we can use
- the same syntax for placement delete? (I don't particularly think it
- worth the bother, but others might.)
