We had an embedded system where
newwas only rarely allowed, and the memory could never be deleted, as we had to prove a maximum heap usage for reliability reasons.We had a third party library developer who didn’t like those rules, so they overloaded
newanddeleteto work against a chunk of memory we allocated just for them.
