I was never confused as to whether this library would magically
implement the impl class, though I think Asger may have flirted
with the idea of forwarding functions.  Nevertheless, I can see
calling the class pimpl_ptr, if that suffix would clarify matters
for you.

That also highlights what Arkadiy--if I remember correctly--
commented on: this is just a special case for a PBSP, with
smart_ptr (in the Review queue) being the likely candidate.
