which provides a gc_alloc, and for new(gc) all you need is something like this:
struct gc_t {}; static const gc_t gc;
void* operator new (size_t n, const gc_t&) { return GC_malloc(n); } void* operator new[](size_t n, const gc_t&) { return GC_malloc(n); }
void operator delete (void* ptr, const gc_t&) {} void operator delete[](void* ptr, const gc_t&) {}
Much easier than hacking shared_ptr.

I found John Max Skaller's posts on such a gc_allocator:

Since I still can't figure out how he did it, maybe he could provide code or more details on howto. However, I don't know his email. I may just download his Felix compiler and try deciphering the code.
