For

#include <vector>
#include <string>

int main()
{
  std::vector<std::string> x;
  std::string s("hello");
  return std::find(x.begin(), x.end(), s) - x.begin();
}

we now get "interesting" linker errors with trunk:

> g++-4.3 -o t t.C
/tmp/cc3Vq2t8.o: In function `main':
t.C:(.text+0x65): undefined reference to

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

where it is not exactly obvious that just the #include <algorithm> is missing
here.  With 4.2 and 4.2 at least the program linked fine (I guess algorithm
was pulled in anyway).

Can we improve this situation by not making algorithm half-way available so
we can raise a meaningful error instead?
