For the record, if the argument was an auto_ptr&, I would expect the auto_ptr to still own the resource if an exception was thrown, although I don't know how to implement it (moving back into the auto_ptr might throw too).

auto_ptr operations never throw.

Oh. Duh. That's what I get for trying to talk about auto_ptr having not used it for years. Thank you for correcting my ignorance. --Jeffrey Bosboom
