Yes, but their other choice is to use a Node* as the link between the list nodes. That imposes a different set of constraints on user defined allocators.
The libstdc++ list implementation does not appear to impose the incomplete type constraint on allocators. I realize that there is practically nothing that I can do about the constraints that Microsoft's list is imposing, but I did want to get a feel for whether the constraint on incomplete types is something that I should expect or whether I should just implement a Microsoft-specific workaround for the case I've run into... -Chris
