As someone who prefers C over C++, I agree with some of what Linus says here but I wouldn't call things like STL and Boost "total and utter crap".

In my mind stl::vector and stl::wstring (basic_string<wchar_t>) are perfectly good choices for that, in an otherwise completely C context. std::auto_ptr... not so much.
