Yong Li also asked about standard library functions calling new and delete, specifically STL. I believe we have been avoiding calling these functions in WebKit, but I may be mistaken.

Recently I came across some memory corruption issues and turns out that WebKit uses std::stable_sort which uses the operator new(nothrow) . I am not sure if there is a useful replacement but its good to know about this.
