Peter, Stefan, thanks for your clarifications.

My question arose from the sad fact that MSVC9.0SP1 doesn't implement
tr1::shared_ptr to be safe for the above scenario. So I try to figure
out whether it's a bug or legetimate implementation.

> it is, because shared_ptr::reset() is specified to be equivalent to shared_ptr().swap(*this).

I found this statement in the boost doc, but does it appear in the
Standard, or is it boost-specific?

Thanks again.
