I understand the logic, but with my user hat on, I expect boost::hash in 
<boost/functional.hpp> (since std::tr1::hash is in <functional>) or in 
<boost/hash.hpp> (because it is defined in namespace boost, not in namespace 
boost::functional).

<boost/functional/hash.hpp> is neither here nor there, IMO. The rest of the 
headers are fine, and placing hash under libs/functional is fine, too.
