Just so you know, the plib author is not exactly thrilled with using
the STL (probably mostly because of the portability issues it
creates.)  There is a wide variety of STL implimentations (or various
stages of implimentations) out there which can cause a lot of
compatibility problems between the various compilers.

Before you get too far down this path, you probably will want to have
a serious discussion about it with Steve because I doubt he will be in
favor of making these sorts of modifications to plib.

Curt.
