Re: Re: [v3] Fully preprocessorify TR1 tuples

["Chris Jefferson" <chris at bubblescope dot net>]

Just a brief comment, the reason that I didn't do this originally is
because the maximum number of tuples is encoded in each tuple
instance, so if you change the maximum size, old code won't link to
it. Thats not to say I disagree with allowing the option to change it,
just explaining the original choice.

This problem will go away when variadic templates come along :)
