 can easily reproduce it.  At the same time, I can easily solve the problem
 by stopping mixing the compilers when I compile my code.   Long time ago
 there was already a ticket for "pointer being freed was not allocated"
 error, where the a suggested solution.  While the solution is not really
 working, the key point is not mixing stuff.

 just need to accept the fact that there is an incompatibility if compilers
 are mixed.   The removal of std++ solve solvable problem for a subset of
 developers using gcc, but creates unsolvable problem for others who rely
 on c++11 and other new features of standard library.

 Exactly my point. Please remember that the gcc4X compilers are *not* just
 there to provide alternative options to build ports, but people also use
 them to build their own code. If I install the latest gcc4X, it might well
 be because I really do want the new features that come with that new
 compiler.
