------- Comment #2 from paolo dot carlini at oracle dot com 2008-08-27 13:12 -------
I will have a look, but this issue cannot have a high-prioriry: auto_ptr is
deprecated for the next standard: there is a large consensus in the ISO C++
committee that the many flaws in its design cannot be fixed, and a replacement
(unique_ptr, which we'll experimentally deliver in gcc4.4.0 under -std=c++0x)
will be provided in the next standard. Thus we can fix only minor issues, in a
strict bug-fix, minimal maintainance mode.
