-------------------------------------------------------+--------------------
 The return type of shared_future<T>::get() seems to be mixed up.
 The actual code (Trunk) returns T by value. The documentation says 'return
 by value' at some places and 'return by const ref' at other places (e.g.
 in the running text).
 The C++11 standard requires 'return by const ref' too.
