Is GCC (and hence DJGPP) likely to come back up to speed on the
standard C++ implementation anytime soon? It's quite a long way behind
the "current state of the art" if I recall correctly - no namespaces
yet, none of the newer template stuff, non-standard STL header names
(should be <string> not <string.h>), none of the allocator stuff, etc.

Of course, I could be wrong - but 2.7.2.1 has been around for quite a
time now, and the standard has changed a lot recently...
