Actually, I get it from "man std_vector". :-)
However, I'm not sure if those man pages are always installed with gcc, since 
they don't seem to be complete yet. I compiled gcc (version 3.2) myself.
I also have Stroustrup's "The C++ Programming Language" Book, which every 
serious C++ programmer should have. It also describes the standard library.

Why do you put "standard" in quotes? std::vector is part of the ISO C++ 
standard that is now 5 years old. Blame the compiler/library makers for not 
properly documenting their implementations. The best source for info about 
the standard library is of course the standard itself, though that will also 
cost (I think $18 or so for the pdf version). There are also drafts of the 
standard available for free on the net.
