Paul,

Please change the template parameter Int to something which differs
by more that a leading uppercase from any built-in type.  Perhaps
"Integer" or "IntType".  It is just too easy with Int for typos
mangle meaning.  The problem isn't just internal to Boost; these
libraries are likely to get written about many times in the future.

Thanks,
