Comment(by anonymous):

 I've been meaning to look at this as well, but haven't had the time yet
 :-(

 Before we get too carried away with any changes:

 * I'd prefer it if has_new_operator retained the existing semantics -
 which is to say returns true if the class has ''any'' of the new operator
 signatures overloaded.
 * With regard to splitting in 3: just remember that there are actually 6
 (I think!) variations if we include the nothrow versions as well.  Wait,
 make that 8 if we include the 2 placement versions!  Not sure whether
 has_operator_new should return true for placement operator overload
 though?

 Just thinking out loud yours, John.
