If I could get the number of elements in the first chunk and the
size of the chunks, that would be sufficient.  (I believe the size
of the chunks is constant within a deque instance.)
I find it disappointing that the latest version of the standard doesn't
have anything related to this and would rather just get something
working than figuring out what would be a flexible, general interface.
