This overloaded new operator is used to place a new object at
a user defined address (in-place construction). The compiler
will insert the constructor call when it sees the new operator.
The address of the object passed to the constructor (the this
pointer) is returned by the new operator. NOTE: The size_t
parameter is required by C++ syntax, but is not need because
this function assumes that the proper space already has been 
allocated.
