Microsoft Visual C++ versions 8+ have checked iterators on by default. Or is there a way of having them unchecked on a case-by-case basic? Maybe you were thinking of some other port of STL?

I would suggest using unchecked iterators in your release builds for the high performance components of your code though, as it will tend to skew the profiling of your code when you're trying to drill down and find those bottlenecks.
