[boost] Using mem_fn with adaptors

Hi all,

When I tried to use mem_fn() with adaptors like compose1 or 
boost::compose_f_gx, my complier said it is not happy with mem_fn's 
argument_type. I looked at mem_fn's source code and find that its 
argument_type is a T*, but in my case it should be a T. i.e. in my case 
mem_fn acts like mem_fun_ref instead of mem_fun.

It is good that mem_fn does not require me to differentiate between T or 
  T*, but is there a way to let me choose the argument_type I want? 
mem_fn's argument_type is "hard coded" to T* in cmf0 now. I end up using 
  mem_fun_ref instead.

I use gcc 3.0.4 and boost_1_26_0.

Thanks for any help in advance.
