 Replying to [comment:1 steven_watanabe]:
 > Is there a good reason that you need to inherit from any instead of just
 using a typedef?  Your example will work with any<C, _self> and any<C,
 _self&>.  If you really need to create your own wrapper, then you need to
 define the extra constructor overloads needed to make it work.

 The ability to forward declare my types is important. With typedef and
 using this is not possible.
