[boost] what happened to allocators in boost?

I am wondering what happened to the allocator idiom in
boost.  Was it left out intentially? 
I can control all memory allocation details in STL
(orthogonally to data types) but not in boost.
It seems like a step backward comparing to STL.
How can I use allocators with shared_ptr? Is there any
way to write something like this.
f()
{
   shared_ptr< int, std::allocator<int> > myptr;
   myptr.allocate();
   *myptr = 123;
}
