// ManualConstructor statically-allocates space in which to store some
// object, but does not initialize it.  You can then call the constructor
// and destructor for the object yourself as you see fit.  This is useful
// for memory management optimizations, where you want to initialize and
// destroy an object multiple times but only allocate it once.
//
// (When I say ManualConstructor statically allocates space, I mean that
// the ManualConstructor object itself is forced to be the right size.)
