Yep, I know that, that's why I wrote that the code needs improvement. Plus, as 
I said, my original argument regarding this code doesn't hold water anyway...

I agree that mpl::list is a poor choice. BTW, I faintly remember having tried 
vector right in the beginning (~2.5 years ago) but abandoned it because it 
didn't work very well with MSVC7.0. So I guess I'm currently requiring 
mpl::list just for historical reasons...
