Right: algorithm is ok. #include <ext/algorithm> is nice! I'm correcting this.
For the include guard I propose _EXT_ALGORITHM, however. What do you think?

Hummm.
To be safe, most probably we should add both HP and SGI copyrights too, as currently
happens at the beginning stl_algo.h.

Ok with this change, or perhaps it is better to wait for Benjamin's point of view on
those legal matters?
