Description

The HP aCC 6.16 runtime on HP-UX/IPF leaks 16 bytes of memory:

$ cat x.cpp && aCC -AA -V x.cpp && ./a.out 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <new>

namespace std { }
using namespace std;

void* operator new (size_t n) throw (bad_alloc) {
    void* const ptr = malloc (n);
    fprintf (stderr, "operator new (%zu) ==> %p\n", n, ptr);
    return ptr;
}

void operator delete (void *ptr) throw () {
    fprintf (stderr, "operator delete (%p)\n", ptr);
    free (ptr);
}

void* operator new[] (size_t n) throw (bad_alloc) {
    void* const ptr = malloc (n);
    fprintf (stderr, "operator new[] (%zu) ==> %p\n", n, ptr);
    return ptr;
}

void operator delete[] (void *ptr) throw () {
    fprintf (stderr, "operator delete[] (%p)\n", ptr);
    free (ptr);
}

int main () {
    fprintf (stderr, "main\n");
}
