Phoenix is an integral part of Spirit 2.1. While it is a "detail"
of sorts you will notice in the libs/spirit directory that Phoenix
has first class treatment. I suspect the best answers to your
questions are in Hartmut's summary of the Phoenix review:

http://lists.boost.org/boost-announce/2008/10/0205.php

Others may have better insider knowledge. I can attest to the
quality of the library and docs as well as the stability. I started
using the library because of Spirit 2.1; however, I now use it
for all of my lambda/bind needs.
