It looks like poly_collection is left out:

There was discussion of this container on this list back in August.

I've compared these two lines:

auto req=::std::unique_ptr<cmw_request>(::new cmw_request(localbuf));

auto req=::std::make_unique<cmw_request>(localbuf);

On clang 3.3, the make_unique version increases the size
of an executable's text segment by 112 bytes.  I think I've
tried it on a newer compiler and found similar results.
