// On windows we need to override new and delete operators
// to ensure that always the right new/delete pair is called for an object instance
// This bug jumps out because windows uses a local heap for each
// executable module (exe or dll).
// (this is a well known bug described in Q122675 of MSDN)
// on Linux it is not needed: there is a single global heap
// 05.02.2005 : scalar/vector deleting destructors in modules
//
// There are also other issues involving the MSVC compiler.
// When the operator new is called on an object with a virtual
// destructor the compiler generates a helper function
// called "vector deleting destructor" that is used to both
// free the object's memory and call the object's destructor.
// (In fact there is also a "scalar deleting destructor" but
// MSVC seems to call the vector version also for scalar deletes ?!?)
// The problem arises when operator new is called in a module:
// the helper function gets stuffed in one of the module's sections
// and when the module is unloaded any attempt to delete
// the object will simply jump into no man's land.
// An "unhandled exception" in a "call [%eax]" corresponding
// to a delete <pointer> may be a symptom of this problem.
// I haven't been able to find a solution nicer than having
// a static allocation function in each class that can be
// created from inside a module and destroyed anywhere else
// and has a virtual destructor.
