The operator "delete" as well as "delete[]" may only be invoked with a
pointer to the memory location previously allocated with "new" or
"new[]". Any other use, including invoking "delete" with a pointer
pointing to an automatic memory location leads to unspecified
results. This may possibly corrupt memory and crash your program.
