// STLDeleteContainerPointers()
//  For a range within a container of pointers, calls delete
//  (non-array version) on these pointers.
// NOTE: for these three functions, we could just implement a DeleteObject
// functor and then call for_each() on the range and functor, but this
// requires us to pull in all of algorithm.h, which seems expensive.
// For hash_[multi]set, it is important that this deletes behind the iterator
// because the hash_set may call the hash function on the iterator when it is
// advanced, which could result in the hash function trying to deference a
// stale pointer.

//  For a range within a container of pairs, calls delete
//  (non-array version) on the SECOND item in the pairs.
