(one caveat, I am working mostly with vectors in my current code).

I think that may work for matrices, but not for vectors.  In the traits
associated with vector vs. bounded_vector I don't see any place to get an int_<>?

Yes. If ublas is going to keep evolving then we definitely need those types.

But now that you have successfully proven I have been misusing ublas
containers for the last year, I might be stuck until we see how eigen3 turns out.
