This header doesn't live alone. It's in TU together with other classes. When
users writes using namespace boost::assignment, the operator+= is
introduced automatically to every class that has value_type in its
definition.
I wish we could write something like
using boost::assignment::introduce_container_template<vector>;
to introduce operator+= only to vectors.
