An ``STL hash table'' proposal was submitted and rejected twice.
The rejection was apparently due to the proposal being too large for
inclusion at such a late stage of the standardization process; I've
heard no-one argue its technical merits and usefulness.

Hence, no standard C++ hash tables in ISO C++ 9X... however, an
implementation is available in:
	ftp://ftp.cs.rpi.edu/pub/stl
including documentation and rationale. Also, it is suspected variants
of it will be shipped with commercial STL distributions.
