I want to interoperate with existing C libraries that expect a
pointer. High performance computing requires this (at least for
now). My point is not that there is anything wrong with libstdc++.
For high performance we need a different vector-like container that
does interoperate with C.
Are there any other STL-compatible containers that have the required
properties?
