Very interesting. I understand that making the function static makes the
program ill-formed, but it's still somewhat surprising that a compiler flag
should turn a perfectly valid program into an invalid one.

Perhaps adding those visibility specifiers to the <new> header would be a good
idea, since it'd be a pure-library solution.

Thanks in any case for clarifying this!
