I think we are totally misunderstood here. I don't have time to prepare complex
test cases revealing problems not in my code. I have found the bug I even found
the cause of the bug and it is still not enough for you.

If you don't want to be informed about problems in stl then what is this
bugzilla for?

I have already made a workaround in my code to avoid the debug container in
certain situations so it's not me who will actually benefit from the fix.
I reported this issue to help other developers who might encounter similar
problem.
Because of version policies in my company probably I won't be even able to use
your fix.
