claims that it returns a std::unique_ptr.

Correct. A std::unique_ptr stores a D::pointer. In our case, D is alloc_deleter and its ::pointer is an alloc_ptr. This alloc_ptr stores an A::pointer and a size_t.

This seems incompatible with what you're saying above.

It isn't.

(There is also no mention of ptr() or size() there.)

It specifies that the ::pointer is an 'unspecified' pointer-like type. I forgot to document that on this unspecified pointer type one can use .ptr() to get the Allocator::pointer and .size() to get the size. Glen
