There's more than one STL in this world. There's GCC's STL (libstdc++), 
which Clang fully supports up to version 4.2. There's Dinkumware's STL, 
a variant of which is shipped by Microsoft, which Clang does not yet 
support, since it uses lots of MS-specific extensions. There's also 
STLport, an independent project. You don't turn MS's STL to STLport, you 
replace the MSSTL with STLport when you switch to it. I assume Clang 
would support STLport, but you'd have to adapt the STLport configuration 
to recognize and correctly configure Clang. Or maybe someone already 
did; try googling.

We've got two or three people working on making MS's various headers 
work in Clang, but this stuff takes time.
