[...] I apologize for the late reply, I was having issues with my installation. I switched the environment and finally had a chance to check it out. The text mentionned against shows the undefined behavior of shifted_ptr when used with STL containers. STL containers use global operator new for allocation and shifted_ptr will therefore not be able to distinguish the heap section from the stack section. There are various solutions for this problem and I am currently working on one that should be more reliable and portable. -Phil
