Some.  I'm trying to get Jeremy to address them since they are mostly
related to the compiler bugs stimulated by the concept checking he
added to the tests.  It's not a matter of a broken library.

There is an issue with the Permutation iterator test; the old
permutation iterator used to promise more than it could really deliver
(random-access operations over a bidirectional base iterator) and the
current tests are failing because of that.  I'd like Toon or Roland to
remove that part of the test if possible.
