 Hi,

 Any reason why typedef argument_type has been removed in the new
 specialization of optional<T&>?

 To have the same typedefs between optional<T> and optional<T&>, it would
 be nice to add the following in the specialization of optional<T&>:[[BR]]
 typedef T& argument_type;

 This allows also to keep compatibility on public interface of the old
 optional implementation, except of course if there is a good reason to
 have removing this typedef...

 Regards,[[BR]]
 Daniel.
