I've had a need for tracking a class' instances for
some time now.  I've used:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/boost-sandbox/boost-sandbox/boost/utility/object_tracked.hpp?rev=1.1&view=auto

to do this and it has worked pretty good. It has been used to write
tests for memory management smart pointers. Some of the policy_ptr tests
could also use something like this.

Your test utilities library would be a better place for it than where it
is now.  Any chance of moving it there?
