I've tried to match the C++0x draft.  To my knowledge the
only remaining incompatibilities are:
* I'm playing fast and loose with the integral types used.
   e.g. uint_least32_t instead of uint_fast32_t, or uintmax_t,
   instead of unsigned long long.
* There is no typedef /unspecified/ default_random_engine.
* A few constructors that take rvalue references are missing.
   rvalues will bind to const T& instead.
