+The following fix was made in 4.0 since 4.0 Release Candidate :
+
+ * _threads.h/_config.h : for all platforms, static mutexes made non-indirect
+
+ * _iterator_base.h : made possible to choose between iterator_traits approach
+ and old-style iterator queries like iterator_category(), value_type(), etc.
+ (Thanks to John R. Bandela for pointing this out)
+ * _config.h, stl_user_config.h : introduced __STL_OLD_HP_ITERATOR_QUERIES switch to
+ allow old-style and new-style iterator queries (for all compilers).
+ iterator_traits<> made always defined.

+ * _ptr_specialize.h - specializations of type_traits<> for compilers w/o partial spec
+ moved into separate file. Added iterator_traits<> specializations for pointer types
+ for __STL_NO_OLD_HP_ITERATOR_QUERIES case. Macro __STL_POINTERS_SPECIALIZE is now available

+ type (latter for standard-style iterator queries mode only)

+ * <rope> fixes for Watcom
+
+ * many miscellanous fixes.
+
+The following changes were made in 3.2.2 beta 3 since 3.2.2 Beta 2:
+
+ * Merged changes made to SGI standard library snapshot in December.
+
+ * std:: is not used for STLport namespace even with SGI iostreams,
+ to avoid possible clashes and facilitate 3rd-party library use.
+ Same macro redefinition technique for stlport:: used to keep clients
+ code with literal std:: happy as in native iostreams mode.
+
+ * C library headers wrapping changed to allow multiple inclusion tricks
+ (needed by gcc-2.95 mostly)
+
+ * gcc-2.95 and CodeWarrior configurations updated.
+
+ * HP aCC fixes applied.
+
+ * Visual C++ - added static library targets, build refined.
+ Fixed memory-mapping bugs.
+
+ * auto_ptr updated, now it passes polymorphic tests with VC++.
+
+ * Many small bugfixes.
+
+The following changes were made in 3.2.2 beta 2 since 3.2.2 Beta 1:
+
+ * Fixed SUN CC deque<> problem with -g
+
+ * Added configuration and makefiles for DEC VMS, Borland and Win32 gcc.
+
+ * Merged changes made to November SGI standard library snapshot.
+
+ * config changes - "configure" made obsolete and moved into "stlport/config/new_compiler".
+
+ * __STL_TYPENAME_ON_RETURN_TYPE handling changed.
+
+ * Miscellanous fixes.
+
+The following changes were made in 3.2.2 Beta 1 since 3.2.1 release:
+
+ * SGI iostreams adopted. To use SGI iostreams, user have to set
+ __SGI_STL_OWN_IOSTREAMS flag and to build the library in "src"
+ directory to link with. Please read INSTALL file for detailed
+ instructions.
+ Default setting is NOT to use SGI iostreams (wrappers used as before).
+
+ * Debug mode completely redesigned - debug mode containers are
+ implemented in terms of wrappers around non-debug ones.
+ That provides for more clean and efficient implementation and
+ binary compatibility between debug and non-debug versions.
+
+ * Additional configurations added for platforms :
+ - gcc-2.95
+ - SUNpro CC 5.0 in "compatibility" mode
+ "configure" made obsolete.
+
+ * Bugfixes reported by users since 3.2.1 release merged
+
+The following changes were made in 3.2.1 since 3.2 release:
+
+ * Now, by default, STLPort renames std:: namespace for user
+ if __STL_USE_OWN_NAMESPACE is used. To make it possible, many new
+ wrapper headers introduced. Internally, STLport uses stlport:: namespace,
+ so no link- or run- time clashes are possible, and you don't have to rebuild
+ the runtime lib (which you don't want to).
+ This feature makes STLport usable out-of-the box, without any modifications
+ for client code, with any compiler.
+
+ * Code bloat reduction : hashtable<T> uses vector<void*> internally.
+
+ * Vector : efficiency/code bloat reduction fixes.
+
+ * Visual C++ : DLL export is supported for allocators and strings. To use it,
+ please define __STL_USE_DECLSPEC in all modules and __STL_DESIGNATED_DLL
+ for the DLL which is supposed to instantiate STLport exports (at least one
+ source of this DLL must include <string>.
+
+ * Visual C++ : for MT synchronization, <windows.h> is not included anymore.
+
+ * For Sunpro C++ 5.0 : all headers are linked into stlport/SC5, so only
+ one include path is needed. Note that SC5.0 has problems with relative
+ search path. It is easy to work around : in your makefiles, instead of
+ "STL_INCL=../.." , write "STL_INCL=${PWD}/../..".
+
+ * Configuration files provided for compilers :
+ KAI C++
+ DEC C++ (6.x, 5.x)
+ Borland 5.02 is back on the road (finally !)
+
+ * Windows CE config provided for Visual C++.
+
+ * __STL_NO_IOSTREAMS switch introduced for embedded platforms.
+
+ * Lots of minor config fixes and improvements for various platforms.
