Frankly, I don't think you should expect to much out of the Microsoft
STL. I remember an annoying bug where I would get crashes in my app when
using Microsoft's STL deque but which went away when I changed the variable
types to vectors. Also the scoping rules for declarations in a for loop is
annoying.
