Hi,

> isn't this strange? a destructor be called more times than a constructor?

no, you are not monitoring all constructor calls. Add something like

My_face(const My_face&) {
    printf("My_face copy constructor!\n");
}

to your example. You should look up "copy constructor" (and probably 
"assignment
operator" too) in a C++ book.

I don't think so. Are you really using CGAL 3.3?
