but considering the class need to be instatiated with an iterator, it this seems to carry double information:

typedef vector<int> container;
container v;
typedef container::iterator iterator;

iterator_range<iterator> my_range = make_iterator_range( v.begin(), v.end() );

while

range<iterator> my_range = make_range( v.begin(), v.end() );
irange<iterator> my_range = make_irange( v.begin(), v.end() );

says IMO essentially what it must.
