No and no.

No.  The last time I tried to use even a relatively trivial container
from STL with gcc, it failed to link on some systems because the name
mangling scheme generated identifiers that were too long for the
assembler.  Perhaps this will eventually be fixed.  Until then, I
decided it was not worth the portability pains.
