It means that we are screwed again
for a long time to come.

First, it was an inconsistent and incomplete 
standad for STL allocators, now it is Boost and
STL combined and things are getting even worse.

As soon as it is an official standard,
people won't be motivated to redesign 
their standard libraries in the near future.

So there is not much point to discuss it now.
