I'm glad to see this catch on and the C level primitives get greater use. This has been a well known problem in the C++ community for years, in particular Howard Hinnant put a lot of work into this problem. I believe the fundamental problem has always been that C++ implementations always use the underlying C implementations for malloc and friends, and the C standards committee could not be pursaded to add the necessary primitives. A few years ago I tried to get a reallic which did not move (instead returned fail) into glibc and jealloc and failed. Glad to see someone else has succeeded.
