I'm not sure I "get" this "we" vs "you" separation given that it is I who 
needs to support intrusive_ptr.

Anyway, I tried playing with some toy examples and it seems that my "old 
compiler zoo" is able to handle by-value assignment, so you can disregard my 
comments as unverified FUD unless confirmed by a regression test breakage.
