Without any code, it's impossible to figure out why you're getting this.
Post a short test case and someone will look into it. Short answer is
that it's there and it works.
Are you including <new> in your code to pick up the right prototype?

no.
here's a quick example (haven't tested it, so beware for syntax errors
and so on):
 #include <new>
 #include <iostream>
 void my_handler () {
 cerr << "no more memory" << endl;
 abort ();
 }
 int main( void ) {
 set_new_handler (&my_handler);
 int *foo = new int [100000000];
 }
$ c++ -o new-handler new-handler.cc
$ ./new-handler
