I haven't reviewed the library yet, and I can't tell yow feasible is 
this. Something similar happened wrt static_vector and stable_vector. 
However, Boost.Container still supports C++03 and other features, so the 
implementation should be updated to match the rest of the library (if 
tests are good enough that should not be a problem). devector definitely 
looks interesting, I haven't investigated yet the essential differences 
between boost::container::deque and batch_deque.

Best,
