Martin Sebor commented on STDCXX-235:
-------------------------------------

The test case below passes with gcc 4.1, bot with and without debugging iterators:

$ cat t.cpp &&  make t && rm t && make t CPPOPTS=-D_RWSTD_NO_DEBUG_ITER
#include <cassert>
#include <vector>

int main ()
{
    std::vector<bool> v;

    typedef std::vector<bool>::const_iterator const_iterator;
    typedef std::vector<bool>::iterator       iterator;

    const const_iterator cbegin = v.begin ();
    const iterator       begin  = v.begin ();

    assert (cbegin == begin);
    assert (begin  == cbegin);

    assert (!(cbegin == begin));
    assert (!(begin  == cbegin));

    assert (cbegin <= begin);
    assert (begin  <= cbegin);

    assert (cbegin >= begin);
    assert (begin  >= cbegin);

    assert (!(cbegin < begin));
    assert (!(begin  < cbegin));

    assert (!(cbegin > begin));
    assert (!(begin  > cbegin));
}

> Well, getting the iterators working was quite a bit of work and we just ran out of time. (Also, given the chaos surrounding vector<bool> in general I didn't consider it as important as all the others.) I would recommend users to not use the class (#define _RWSTD_NO_VECTOR_BOOL). We will probably eventually rewrite vector<bool> and the iterators but I don't think it will happen anytime soon. I created incident #23164.
