How about Boost.Bind? Could I use it to bind my operator? I would also
expect it to choose the correct overload of the stream operator depending on
the type of _1. I have not used Bind like this before, so I'm not sure if it
is capable. If all else fails you've given me 2 alternatives concerning
Boost.Lambda, so I could always go with that.

Thanks for all the help.
