Thanks a lot for the suggestion, I did take a look at Lambda library, and I 
saw that it used some extra type information in its STL
algorithm wrappers (the 'sig') to help it figure out the return types. 
However, I am against using the Lambda library
for other reasons, I only want to use the bind library.  I'd appreciate some 
specific advice on how to get the type deduction
with the Boost.bind library.  Or is this just not possible with Boost.bind?
