I just put several I/O-related items up for review a few months ago.  
One of the items was a set of stream class templates that wrap a 
containing stream buffer.  Look for stuff like "streambuf_wrapping.hpp".

The code as it was reviewed is in the file section of our Yahoo Groups 
space under the name "more_io.zip".  Updated versions of the code exist 
in the Boost-sandbox CVS.
