    <p><code>manage_new_object</code> is a model of <a href=
    "ResultConverter.html#ResultConverterGenerator-concept">ResultConverterGenerator</a>
    which can be used to wrap C++ functions which return a pointer to an
    object allocated with a <i>new-expression</i>, and expect the caller to
    take responsibility for deleting that object.</p>
