I've checked in this code, modified slightly and with docs & tests. I made 
three changes:
  - is_blocked() -> blocked(), to match the standard's naming conventions and 
libsigc++
  - block() now takes a boolean parameter (again, matching libsigc++)
  - blocked() returns true when the slot is disconnected or blocked.

Thanks for the patch!
