Yeah, I planned on comparing them _carefully_. Licence shouldn't be a
problem, but once I've seen if they're suitable candidates to turn into
the TR1 I'll check that on the Boost list (I've been helping fix issues
with Boost versus GCC 3.4 anyway). As long as the Boost licence text is
left in the headers we should be able to use 'em.
If they're not suitable to turn into the TR1 types I'll give up, as I
won't have time to rewrite them from scratch. I'll only consider the
smart ptrs for now anyway, I have little enough time to spend on it.
