The problem is we can't have template <template <class, class> class C> 
class container besides template <template <class> class C> class 
container. But in this case, I think we can just name the former 
diffently, for example container_with_allocator. The attached patch is a 
quick shot: on first sight it's uglier that what has been suggested 
before (writing template <template< class T, class A = std::allocator<T> 
 > class C> class container, but it doesn't turn all container types 
into container-assuming-STL types.

It has the problem that it still fails to link and on gcc-4.2 it even 
fails to compile with very strange error mesages from the assembler. 
But, heck, who cares!?

-richy.
