The mainline (and thus all recent snapshots) have been using SGI STL
3.11 for three months now without major problems, as far as I can tell.

Igor, if your really want to/have to use STL 3.11, using a current
snapshot should be reasonably stable on sparc-sun-solaris2.6 (I'm
using that for everyday work) and most probably also on Linux.
