First sentences of my review are in my drafts folder.
I need more time to finish it.

It's more close to Dave's and Alexey's fsm example rather
then to proposed Boost.FSM. So, it's not yet a system,
it's only an example of metaprogramming on overload sets.
Compared to MPL fsm, in my example (a) states are _types_,
not numbers, (b) inheritance is used to model states
hierarchy and (c) transition table is represented by a set
of call operators. There is no history, orthogonality and
all these cool features implemented by Andreas.
Currently, I'm working on mpl::set interface for overload sets.
New version is almost ready, I hope to get my state machine
working tomorrow.
