STL is in the Draft Standard. No one** on the C++ committee wants to
remove STL, and so far no ISO national body has asked for
STL to be removed, so it is virtually certain it will remain.

The book is based on the C++ Committee draft as of March 1994. The
draft has changed since then, particularly the library portion.
