Default Acacia frost damage

Hello All,

My Acacia Dealbata ( about 4 years old, 3 of which were in a pot ), 9 foot
tall, has suffered in the late frost. It's leaves are all drooping and going
a brown colour.

Anyone else have the same problem? Is the tree likely to be dead or might it
regrow new leaves? I have seen websites saying they can withstand several
degrees of frost, but younger trees are less hardy, and anyway, we had a lot
of degrees of frost.
