Mr. Kanze,
  Please note that when subject to the limitation of being "static virtual"
functions, as Mr. Winroth alluded to in his posting to which Mr. Martin was
replying, "these functions" would not have any way of calling (non-static) 
member functions, everyday ones or otherwise, and therefore couldn't call
them "on raw memory."  I am interested in what your thoughts on this topic
might be in light of this additional information.  Thank you.
