yes, but that is irrelevant.  
We don't accept
   
    #include <vector>
    #include <string>
  
    int main()
    {
       using namespace std;
       vector<string>::iterator p = NULL;
    }

for proper type checking.  The list iterator constructor accepting a
pointer should be explicit.

Thanks Marc,
