code: public PlaceManager createPlace (PlaceConfig config, PreStartupHook hook)
          throws InstantiationException, InvocationException
      {
          return createPlace(config, null, hook);
      }
docs: Don't use this method, see {@link #createPlace(PlaceConfig)}.
  
  @param hook an optional pre-startup hook that allows a place manager to be configured prior
  to having {@link PlaceManager#startup} called. This mainly exists because it used to be
  possible to do such things. Try not to use this in new code.
