I've tried today, for the first time, to use platformstl headers with Borland C++ Builder 6, and found a problem with the way the namespaces are defined...

The follwing doesn't compile correctly with BCB (don't know if it works with other compilers, didn't bother trying, sorry!...):

namespace top
{
    namespace inner
    {
    }
}

namespace outer = top::inner;
namesapce outer
{
    // additional members of the top::inner namespace
}

If you replace the above names with:
top = stlsoft
inner = platformstl_project
outer = platformstl

you get the platformstl headers not compiling

Fixed. Will be in _one last_ beta. :-)
