boost::container::vector has some new functions (undocumented, as they 
are not ready to be public) to improve performance: merge, merge_unique, 
insert_ordered_at.

Note that boost::container::vector implements many C++11 features in 
C++03 compilers. Without C++11, flat_xxx would be broken.

Best,
