         - gdcmPython/demo/vtkGdcmReader.py added. This demo illustrates
           the usage of the python wrapper of vtkGdcmReader vtk class.
       * vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx: bug fixed (thanks to Benoit Regrain).  
+      * src/*.[h] all occurences of stl classes are now prefixed with
+        std::, and all occurences of "using namespace std;" where removed.
+        This is to avoid pollution of global namespace in included files.
+        Apparently vtk does not avoid this pitfall: when using both
+        gdcm and vtk (as in vtk/vtkGdcmReader.cxx) this ended up in a
+        collision of various stl members (principally cout...).
