Bill Hoffman and I already looked at it.  It is actually based on SGI's
implementation, but hacked up to compile on more platforms and be
thread/exception safe.  You are correct, it is very interdependent on its
own STL implementation.

We could consider dropping all of stlport into Insight (like VXL), but
that would probably turn into a nightmare to maintain.
