Well, then someone would have to give me CVS write access, I guess. My Sourceforge 
user name is t_schwinger.

While having CVS access could be a good thing in general, it's probably easier to 
use a ZIP, this time.

Just added some comments and updated the ZIP (I only put my copyright into the 
files involved in preprocessing, because there is none of my code in the 
preprocessed files).

I put the preprocessing script to $(BOOST_ROOT)/libs/typeof/tools. If you want it 
to live somewhere else the relative path to the destination files inside of it has 
to be updated (there are comments inside).

The programs I used for testing (except those in libs/typeof/test already) are 
heavily based on Boost.Spirit and Boost.Preprocessor, so IMO they are not too well 
suited to be official Boost.Typeof tests.

Since vector50.hpp is generated by the same code as vector250.hpp I don't even 
know if any further testing is really that necessary. If so, adding more-or-less 
arbitrary tests with LIMIT_SIZE e { 100,150,200,250 } will do.
