Destroy the currently managed object, if any. Then, set the target object of this managed pointer to be that referenced by the specified `ptr`, take ownership of `*ptr` as the currently managed object, and set a deleter that will invoke the specified `deleter` with the address of the currently managed object, and with the specified `cookie` (that the deleter can use for its own purposes), unless `0 == ptr`, in which case reset this managed pointer to empty. The behavior is undefined if `ptr` is already managed by another object, or if `0 == deleter && 0 != ptr`. Note that GCC 3.4 and earlier versions have a bug in template type deduction/overload resolution that causes ambiguities if this signature is available. This function will be restored on that platform once the deprecated signatures are finally removed.
