Yes, I replaced all my uses of unpack with make_fused and everything
looks like it's working.  Thanks for pointing it out.  If the range
authors are interested I'll probably post my code with unpack (which
depends only on boost::result_of) and let them make the call whether
they want to introduce a fusion dependency.

This does raise a naming question.  MPL uses unpack_args, Fusion uses
make_fused.  I thought unpack was nice (I also like unzip), but I'm
not dead-set on any particular name.  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Nate
