As I've pointed out in the past, Joel de Guzman has posted what I
believe to be the definitive implementation of this return type
deduction facility.  Lost my connection at the moment, but it should
be findable through the usual boost archives.  Look for a thread
titled "limited form of type deduction" and http://tinyurl.com/ofqf.
In the sandbox, see boost/utility/type_deduction.hpp.
