------- Comment #12 from ian at airs dot com 2008-04-10 23:33 ------- Note that bug 35878, which was closed as a duplicate of this one, was a case of placement new. For placement new the check for a NULL pointer is particularly useless, as the language standard says that placement new is required to return the pointer which was passed in.
