RE: [boost] boost::nil

A quick search for "nil" turns up one more use in
boost::graph::connected_componets. And I think this is more of a case where
the comment should read, (c_count initialized to "uninitialized" represented
by max() )rather than set to "nil" which like Doug I tend to think of as an
alternative value to "zero."

But I could be persuaded that "nil" has a value other than zero. But for
Doug's case, zero works best. (tuples don't care, it just needs a type to
use as a marker.)
