I'm afraid I've not had time to apply this patch and play with it,
despite being very interested in it.

Just a quick question, which I'd been meaning to check for myself ...

+  template<class _Tp>
+    struct __rvalref
+    {
+      _Tp& __ref;
+      __rvalref(_Tp& __inref) : __ref(__inref) { }
+    };

Could that ctor be explicit?  If it's only ever constructed explicitly
by a call to __move_helper<_Tp>::__move() then it could be, but I
haven't looked long enough to know if that's true.

Obviously, whatever the answer to my question is it's not a reason to
reject Chris' patch.
