[boost] Fixed point integer template library

Is there any interest in a fixed point integer library?  I believe many of
the simple operations can be optimised by the compiler to no slower than
traditional fixed point arithemetic operations using the shift operators.

The major differences between this and Bill Seymour's fixed point decimal
proposal are that:
It will be binary with a binary point.
The only data member will be the fixed point number, there will be no
additional state or precision members.
