> There is an Apache incubator project to develop an implementation of the 
> standard C++ library (their web site is here 
> http://incubator.apache.org/stdcxx). Currently, in SDO for C++, we use the 
> library provided by whichever platform we happen to run on. Using the Apache 
> stdcxx library instead would provide us with a number of benefits
> - It is available on a wide range of platforms
> - It is the same implementation on all of them (so avoids obscure bugs from 
> slight differences in C++ libraries)
> - It is open source so we can contribute fixes rather than writing around 
> problems.
> - We become better citizens of the Apache community
> The one difficulty is that once SDO links against the stdcxx library then all 
> users of SDO must also do so. Therefore, 
> implement a build time switch that chooses between whatever the platform 
> offers (ie the current arrangement) and stdcxx, defaulting to the current 
> arrangement.
