Please correct me if i'm wrong, but here is my understanding.
the iostream include, is the new convention, when using namespace.
As far as I know, both gcc and egcs don't support this yet. However to
"ease" the 
transition into the new convention. gcc includes iostream, yet if you look
at it, I believe that it just includes iostream.h for now.
