mhm ... i was quite surprised to see that no dates for 1.50 have been
posted to the calendar, so i didn't know what state the release branch
is in (well, haven't asked or searched the archive, either) ... iac, i
would have appreciated if a date would have been posted, when the
release branch is closed.

requesting permission to merge some small fixes for boost.heap, that are
in trunk.

if i had known the schedule for 1.50 like two weeks ago, i would have
added boost.lockfree with the restriction of being c++11 only, as at
least recent versions of clang++ and g++ provide a sufficient
implementation of c++11 atomic<> (i start having the feeling that
boost.atomic is going to be obsolete once it will be added) ... but iac,
boost.lockfree will have to wait for 1.51
