Oops! gcc 2.8.x _does_ support std:: namespace

[Jean-Marc Lasgouttes]

Lars,

Sorry about what I wrote a few days ago: gcc 2.8.x happily compiles
stuff like std::vector (and simply ignores them). It was gcc 2.7.x
which did not. 

So you can do what you want with 'using' directive, since it seems
clear that gcc 2.7.x is not going to be supported again...
