I don't understand this. I would expect most modern C++ programs to be using
shared_ptr as the default for most pointers and thus use it heavily. Any
time that I've been able to use at least TR1 for C++, I've used it
everywhere, and when I've been stuck with C++98, I've used a home-grown
equivalent. shared_ptr is a _huge_ boon for avoiding memory problems.
