what's the biggest problem, that there are many header for the same 
or similar thing:
functional.hpp, function.hpp, bind.hpp, compose.hpp, operators.hpp
and it's seems to me there is not a common basic design decision behind
the whole thing. everybody (like me) do what he would like to use and
put into boost. IMHO it's high time to reconsider the whole thing
and keep in mind the other parts of boost call_traits, type_traits, and
iterator_adaptors to be consistent!
