That's normal for node-based containers.

The correct behaviour (see 23.2.1  [container.requirements.general]
p3) is to use one allocator type to allocate memory for a node, but
*not* use that type to construct the node (instead use placement new),
then use a different allocator type to construct the element in the
node.  See _M_create_node in <bits/forward_list.h> for more details.
