Well, i don't care.
For a std::tr1::shared_ptr there is no poly cast and thats ok.
  But there should be one for a boost::shared_ptr, because
boost offers poly casts and they own so much. :]
Thus, my question is why the ptr poly casts are not/no longer
documented (i.e. not part of the public interface).
