Stroustrup lists the "new" operator as one that can be
overloaded. I'm not exactly sure what functionality this
provides (over assigning into "this" in the constructor)
and I know I can't get the syntax right. Could someone
show me an example of "new" being overloaded and how
it would be used?

Thanks in advance,
