The verdict of the review was to merge double_ended into container - a wise
decision. However, it'd require the original c++11 library to be converted
to a c++03 library - I didn't have the taste for that.

Others also argued that the small buffer optimization should be taken care
of by the Allocator, something that would require substantial changes.
Later my attention turned to a different open source library (
http://binlog.org - take a look if you are interested in high performance
structured logging), and didn't have time to finish any of this. Sorry
about that.
