Actually, he _has_ made this claim. In fact, he recently made the
even more wog boggling claim that it could not be implemented in any
language _but_ C++. Of course, when several people called him on
this, he could not support this rather wild claim.
And the RPI people have basically done the STL, in the sense that all
the bases are covered, but it needs to be brought up to a complete
implementation. Brian Rogoff says he is redoing it along these lines.

I suppose. But to be honest, this is really one big jumbo *yawn*...
