Subject: [boost] [Boost.Pool] TR1?

Greetings,

I see the Boost.Pool is not making its way up to the C++ standards yet
an it is very unfortunate given its great use. Boost.Pool provides an
is_from() member function that does a simple range check and returns
whether a pointer is part of the pool or not. This is a very useful
function which I think should be part of the standards because it could
be used for the global pool as well; i.e. the one used by operator ::new
and ::delete. The benefits outweigh the costs.

Thanks,
-Phil
