  "Primitive. Answer an instance of this class with the number of indexable
  variables specified by the argument, sizeRequested.  Fail if this class is not
  indexable or if the argument is not a positive Integer, or if there is not
  enough memory available. Essential. See Object documentation whatIsAPrimitive.
 
  If the primitive fails because space is low then the scavenger will run before the
  method is activated.  Check args and retry via handleFailingBasicNew: if they're OK."
