Hmm. I think move constructors //shouldn't// throw, but are allowed to. It's not undefined behavior to have a throwing move constructor (unless I'm mistaken, which is entirely possible). But I think you're right, the only thing we're really worried about is the allocator throwing. So what if we just put the call to `.allocate` inside of the try/catch? I'll update this patch to do that.
