I haven't been following this thread, and Dave's email program has 
broken the threading, so I'm missing the context here. But std::hash is 
specified in section 6.3.2 of TR1 (a little confusing as it's in the 
header <functional> but specified in the container section). None of 
Dave's objections to Boost.Hash applied to the TR1 specification, all of 
them were with the implementation or the extensions. And I think the 
distinction was pretty clear.
