Agreed - fpermissive should be a last resort only.

... So I wonder if something like this would work:
__instantiate(Vector<size_t>)
#if (sizeof(size_t) != sizeof(unsigned int))
__instantiate(Vector<unsigned int>)
#endif
...since we only need it if the two are different sized...?

I think the above should work on all systems regardless of LP64 or not...?
