Extended binary numbers

The file "bitint.zip," my first independent contribution, was uploaded to
the Boost vault.  It should work like a lot of built-in unsigned integer
implementations do: two-complement handling of a binary representation.
Operations work like they did in computer science classes (or at least to
the best I can remember or make up).  They can support arbitrary sizes (it's
a template type based on the size, so the size is per type, not per object).
The documentation was done similar to the rational<> docs.

Opinions?
