I did not read your code, yet, but what application do you have in mind?
I'd like to suggest another way: Generalize the operator.
v3 = elementwise_binary_op< OP >(v1, v2)
which returns
v3[i] = OP(v1, v2)
and OP can be any functor (like e.g. scalar_multiplies). Then you can use
MY_OP::operator()(x1, x2) { return (x1 < x2) ? r1 : r2; }
Of course this only works if you know r1 and r2 at compile time.
