For some classes of containers e.g. for linked lists it is
possible: throw an exception if te end of list reached
(actually Ada compilers will throw these "automagically").
A good thing to have a debug version where iterators "know"
about containers.
See www.STLport.org for an C++ STL with extensive debugging.
