In my opinion the issue isn't particularly urgent. In this sense: as you
remind elsewhere, we could as well wait a bit more (probably the erase
overloads will change in C++0x) and then add exports for the
corresponding, more stable C++0x bits in namespace *std* instead of
mixing now tr1 and std facilities. I have similar feelings about the
tr1::type_traits issue: instead of using tr1:: names in the
implementation of standard facilities, we can as well wait a bit more
(see the message from Howard about a few bits still in flux) and then
use the C++0x type_traits facilities in std.
