More or less. ;-) "The new shared_ptr" is the shared_ptr in

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/smart_ptr_3.zip

The code is written in such a way so that it can be added to the CVS without
causing problems for existing smart_ptr.hpp users (it uses different
headers, f.ex. shared_ptr.hpp, and the new classes pass smart_ptr_test.cpp.)
