When faced with this same challenge in the CodeWarrior library I had
good luck with the technique outlined here:

I was going to suggest the same thing... but why the second overload of move? There is no use case where the argument is an rvalue, right?

I believe it was just me being conservative. I.e. move(rvalue) is legal in C++0X, so I was just covering my behind. ;-) And actually move(const l/rvalue) is legal too in C++0X (though not very fulfilling). I don't think I actually ever used it. But if client code did, then it would at least compile as it would in C++0X.
