Hi!

I have noticed that the call_traits<>::const_reference translates to
const& even for 'small built-in types' I was wondering if it wouldn't
be "better" i.e more efficient to let it translate to const by-value
for these types instead?
The only reason I can think of Not to do this, is to make a const_cast
work, but as I understand the standard doesn't require a const_cast
to succeed at all?
Perhaps this could be made optionable in the config?

regards
/Fredrik
