Sounds like integration instead of a big #ifdef switch might be appropriate now (?)

Very problematic, IMO. The implementations are so fundamentally different, that there isn't much opportunity for reuse, except maybe small things, like BOOST_TYPEOF_UNIQUE_ID() or converting "unsigned int" into "unsigned_int" for the purpose of handling integral template parameters. Also please imagine the review of such a unified library. Reviewers would be forced to simultaniously judge two totally different, even alternative ideas... Please correct me if I am wrong.
