/* gnu::unique_ptr defines a C++ owning smart pointer that exposes a
   subset of the std::unique_ptr API.

   In fact, when compiled with a C++11 compiler, gnu::unique_ptr
   actually _is_ std::unique_ptr.  When compiled with a C++03 compiler
   OTOH, it's an hand coded std::unique_ptr emulation that assumes
   code is correct and doesn't try to be too smart.

   This supports custom deleters, but not _stateful_ deleters, so you
   can't use those in C++11 mode either.  Only the managed pointer is
   stored in the smart pointer.  That could be changed; it simply
   wasn't found necessary.

   At the end of the file you'll find a gnu::unique_ptr partial
   specialization that uses a custom (stateless) deleter:
   gnu::unique_xmalloc_ptr.  That is used to manage pointers to
   objects allocated with xmalloc.

   The C++03 version was originally based on GCC 7.0's std::auto_ptr
   and then heavily customized to behave more like C++11's
   std::unique_ptr, but at this point, it no longer shares much at all
   with the original file.  But, that's the history and the reason for
   the copyright's starting year.

   The C++03 version lets you shoot yourself in the foot, since
   similarly to std::auto_ptr, the copy constructor and assignment
   operators actually move.  Also, in the name of simplicity, no
   effort is spent on using SFINAE to prevent invalid conversions,
   etc.  This is not really a problem, because the goal here is to
   allow code that would be correct using std::unique_ptr to be
   equally correct in C++03 mode, and, just as efficient.  If client
   code compiles correctly with a C++11 (or newer) compiler, we know
   we're not doing anything invalid by mistake.

   Usage notes:

   - Putting gnu::unique_ptr in standard containers is not supported,
     since C++03 containers are not move-aware (and our emulation
     relies on copy actually moving).

   - Since there's no nullptr in C++03, gnu::unique_ptr allows
     implicit initialization and assignment from NULL instead.

   - To check whether there's an associated managed object, all these
     work as expected:

      if (ptr)
      if (!ptr)
      if (ptr != NULL)
      if (ptr == NULL)
      if (NULL != ptr)
      if (NULL == ptr)
