It is not in the standard, but it is widely recognized.  It's easy to make
your own.  Grab the auto_ptr source.  Search and replace "auto_ptr" with
"auto_ptr_array".  Then find the deletes and change each to delete [].
For bonus points, you can take an extra minute and add an operator [] to
make it look more like a C-style array.

This may sting a little, just at first, but don't worry, that'll go away
once the searing pain kicks in.
