Right, that container does not guarantee that the underlying structure
is a contiguous array (as is the case in C++).  Think of it not as an
unbounded array (which would a physical view), but rather as a
container that provides random access (which is the logical view).

In your case you'll probably have to use an unbounded array directly.
If you want a vector-like thing then you can just grab the vector
source code and modify it as you see fit.
