   *  @brief  A simple smart pointer providing strict ownership semantics.

   *  The Standard says:

   *  An @c auto_ptr owns the object it holds a pointer to.  Copying an
   *  @c auto_ptr copies the pointer and transfers ownership to the destination.
   *  If more than one @c auto_ptr owns the same object at the same time the
   *  behavior of the program is undefined.
   *
   *  The uses of @c auto_ptr include providing temporary exception-safety for
   *  dynamically allocated memory, passing ownership of dynamically allocated
   *  memory to a function, and returning dynamically allocated memory from a
   *  function.  @c auto_ptr does not meet the CopyConstructible and Assignable
   *  requirements for Standard Library <a href="tables.html#65">container</a>
   *  elements and thus instantiating a Standard Library container with an
   *  @c auto_ptr results in undefined behavior.
   *  </pre>
   *  Quoted from [20.4.5]/3.
   *
   *  Good examples of what can and cannot be done with auto_ptr can be found
