Thanks, Stephen, for the updated recommendations.

Actually, select_type.hpp is not being used in cast.hpp at all, as far as I 
can see. The include can just be removed.

cast.hpp probably also needs to die, the polymorphic casts going into their 
own header. This will be post-release because it will break code, though.

Inclusion report for <boost/cast.hpp> (in module conversion):
