Most 'detail's in shared_ptr.hpp were already fully-qualified, but since 
there is no shared_ptr test covering this case, I've managed to introduce 
two unqualified instances. Which leads me to think that my first reaction of 
"does anyone have a simple test case" was correct. Unfortunately producing a 
simple test for this problem doesn't seem easy.
