Speaking only for myself, I didn't realize my fingerprints were on any 
of these.  If they really are somewhere, my permission is given.  I've 
already reimplemented these for Metrowerks and that's the only code I 
can't share.

Btw, it isn't in the TR1, but you might consider: shared_ptr<T[]> and 
weak_ptr<T[]> as a conforming extension.
