Yuck and Yuck FWIW. AFAIK only prefix user defined operations work in C++.

     if ( frobnicates(all_of(a), any_of(b))) {
        frazzle(a);
    }else{
        frazzle(b);
    }

At least until  user defined operators are allowed:
 
 frazzle a  if  all_of  a  frobnicates  any_of  b 
    else frazzle b;

But till then keep it simple please !
