I don't know which implementation you are refering to, but neither the two
leading compilers for Windows nor the two leading compilers for Mac OS have
such a problem.  In fact, it is really hard to make auto_ptr use slow
anywhere if the compiler supports at least the most trivial of
optimisations...
