2869,pool_allocator interferes with multi-layer instantiations,ta0kira@…,Chris Newbold,"Using '''pool_allocator''' with multiple layers of data causes misordered construction/destruction.

== Test 1 ==
In the example below, the problem is with construction.  I was trying to reproduce a problem with destruction of static STL containers; however, the construction problem is the one that surfaced.
{{{

	{
	array_of_int.push_back( int_vector() );

	for (int J = 0; J < 10; J++)

In other circumstances of the same pattern these aren't a problem (too complex to post, but still a vector of vectors using '''pool_allocator'''.)
