v2 and v3 of libstdc++

[Ajay Bansal]

Sorry for being oersuing it again.. I have tried to gond thru the
discussions on filebuf::fd at
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2001-12/msg00037.html

But still, I am not able to implement corresponding functionality. As my
application is in production & I can not change function API's, hence I
have to have fd method. Does somebody have a patch or workaround for the
same????

Nope.  The ISO standard is the first one.
