It should be possible to allocate memory without the VM dying on failure.

This would be good when you are monitoring the VM, and causing allocations to occur as a result of this. In this case, you don't want a running production-vm to die because you asked it to print out its stacktrace for you.

When using CHeap-based classes, we can use the std::nothrow-syntax today to allocate objects but not dying on failure. However, not when using Resource objects. This should be fixed.
