Comment (by dave):

 Your patch looks excellent.  I don't think there's any reason to use
 implicit_cast in there, though.  At this point, it should just be
 {{{
 return boost::addressof(x);
 }}}

 If you can fix that, and add a test case that fails without your patch and
 passes otherwise, I'll be happy to commit this.
