Hi, I was thinking of something along the lines of

iterator insert(iterator, const key_type &key, std::auto_ptr<T> ptr);

and

iterator insert(iterator, const key_type &key, mapped_type val);

to mimic the insert overload that doesn't take the iterator.

And while you're at it, I've noticed that the member
std::pair<iterator,bool> ptr_map_adapter::iterator(key_type &key, 
mapped_type x)

takes the key as a non-const reference, is there a reason for that?

Thanks and congratulations for the great library,
