Gcc doesn't do the conversion because the standard doesn't specifically 
say it has to be able to. Our implementation uses some optimizations 
that don't allow this simple conversion, because our iterations aren't 
just pointers. 
 
The solution to your problem is to either do an element-wise copy, or 
if you are adventurous, use 
  &*vec.begin(); 
to get the address of the first element.
