[C++-sig] Is there a way to automatically convert a smart_ptr to a held_type (try 2)

[Allen Bierbaum]

I've been trying to learn more about the calling and argument
conversion process today by stepping through the code with ddd/gdb.  I
am learning some things but I have to admit it is pretty difficult
with all the preprocessor library and MPL usage (this stuff confuses
the debugger quite a bit).

Hopefully by later today I will understand enough to know what you
code samples are trying to do. :)
