How about both?  First a boost::deque implementation and then
if someone is inclined to delve into this further a more general
implementation that might replace the earlier implementation.
Since this wasn't addressed by C++11, I'm not sure how long it
will take to get attention.  If the interface we come up with has
weaknesses, someone else will figure out how to improve
upon it.
