Subject: [boost] Boost.Integer makeover

Folks,

Boost.Integer has had a quick makeover in Trunk - starting from the "last
known good" release - and then fixing all outstanding issues filed since
that release. New-look docs are visible here:
https://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/integer/doc/html/index.html

I'd really appreciate it if:

* Folks can read through the docs looking for the usual SNAFU's
* Test the code on whatever exotic compilers/platforms you may have
available.

Some random thoughts that occurred to me while doing this:

* I don't see the point of the static-min-max templates - there are 4 of
them when 1 would probably do (template <class T, T val1, T val2>
static_min_max), but in any case the implementation is almost too trivial
for a separate template to make sense?
* I haven't added mpl-compatible templates yet as per
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1224, is there demand for this?

Cheers, John.
