Because (a) implementing a linked list is pretty trivial (b) the only
difficult part is getting the semantics / API right. I don't see how
std::list would help with (b), and (a) negates the benefit of
importing the code from elsewhere.
We'd also have to gut std::list, since we wouldn't be able to make use
of C++ templates.
That said, if you know of any specific techniques from std::list
implementations that would be useful, please let me know.

Why not?
