Martin Sebor commented on STDCXX-1:
-----------------------------------
I don't see how this could be done in a binary compatible way. To link with
another implementation of the C++ Standard Library without running into
conflicts we'd need to change the names of all the symbols that we could
conflict with, i.e., everything we define out-of-line in namespace std, which
is all of iostreams, locale, and strings. So I can't imagine how this could be
done in 4.3.
