Unfortunately, the Dinkumware page contains many errors.
Here is what the standard says (21.3.6):

   allocator_type get_allocator() const;
    
   -5- Returns: a copy of the Allocator object used to construct the
       string.

I don't know where Plauger gets the idea that it has been removed.

Thank you for the bug reports.
