No, the reason is because I'm an idiot. There's no c'tor that lets
you pass a shared_ptr + deleter. The best you can do is give it
the raw pointer + a new deleter, which, of course, is probably
because you really intend to do that.

Yeah, I didn't look at the implementation closely enough. You have
to abuse it pretty seriously to make it break.
