 In the time of multicore processors and Thread Building Blocks at hand, it
 would be nice to be able to use accumulators in parallel computations.

 To do so, one would need to combine partial computations. In other
 words,we need accumulator_set::combine(). This would combine the partial
 computation state from another accumulator_set.

 This operation would enable the accumulators to be used with
 parallel_reduce.
