[C++-sig] Merging indexing_v2 to mainline

[Raoul Gough]

A few years ago I worked on a new implementation of container indexing 
support in Boost.Python, which never made it onto the Boost mainline. I 
seem to remember that Dave had some reservations about the amount of 
detailed documentation on the way the implementation worked, but haven't 
dredged up any old emails on this point.

Since then, I haven't had much time to look at this, so the code has 
always remained on the indexing_v2 branch. Nevertheless, I understand 
that some people are using this code successfully, including pygccxml*, 
so I was wondering if it would now be appropriate to merge this code 
onto the mainline.

I didn't keep up with the CVS to SVN conversion, so I'm not sure how 
hard this would be to get done. Any opinions or advice on getting this 
started?
