   *  of a safe iterator that is not specific to a particular iterator
   *  type. It contains a pointer back to the sequence it references
   *  along with iterator version information and pointers to form a
   *  doubly-linked list of iterators referenced by the container.
   *
   *  This class must not perform any operations that can throw an
   *  exception, or the exception guarantees of derived iterators will
   *  be broken.
