This patch allows us to catch use of destructed strings.

Google ref: b/5430313

Ok for google/gcc-4_7 and google/integration?

Hello,

while a number of the google debug patches are just cheaper versions (that 
don't break the ABI) of what libstdc++'s debug mode provides, this 
overwriting of classes on destruction is not as obviously redundant, and I 
wonder whether something like it (done consistently for many classes) 
could go to trunk...

Thanks for pointing this out, Marc.

This does look like something that could be included in debug mode,
but probably not until we're back in Stage 1.  Please either put it in
Bugzilla (and CC me) or if you're diligent enough to remember please
email us again during Stage 1  :-)

Googlers, please include the libstdc++ list on patches to the
libstdc++ code, even if it's only to a google branch. I don't read
gcc-patches but am still interested in the changes you make to the
code on your branch.

Thanks Jonathan.  We'll do.

Will do. Sorry about that.

Thanks,
