In stl_iterator.h you'll find:

  #ifdef __STL_USE_NAMESPACES
  template <class _Category, class _Tp, class _Distance = ptrdiff_t,
            class _Pointer = _Tp*, class _Reference = _Tp&>
  struct iterator {
    typedef _Category  iterator_category;
    typedef _Tp        value_type;
    typedef _Distance  difference_type;
    typedef _Pointer   pointer;
    typedef _Reference reference;
  };
  #endif

If you comment out the #ifdef/#endif, it works fine. I have no idea why
it's defined out when namespaces are disabled anyway (does anyone?).
