The reason for the asserts firing is that the Sun CC Compiler is 
setting up the typedefs for value_type, pointer, reference, and 
iterator_category incorrectly. So any functionality which depends on 
those typedefs may not work right. #ifdefing will let you compile other 
things which don't depend on those typedefs, but won't solve the 
fundamental problem.
