But it is a cut-down version, not nice at all.

IMVHO we should begin using exceptions and require 2.95 and 2.96 users
to use STLPort. (these must be my new peeves, since we finally got rid
of lyxstring).

Ad. lyxstring -> Andre are you still testing the private inheritance
stuff? If not I'd like to begin using <string> directly.
(and remove configure and .h file cruft)
