// Aleksey, check it out: lazy if_ evaluation in lambdas!
// I think this doesn't handle the case of
//
//    _1<foo<_2>, bar<_2>, baz<_2> >
//
// (or however it is that you express that... when the ordinary bind3
// computes the function based on the actual arguments). That leads me
// to think that some kind of true currying might be a better
// approach, e.g.:
//
//
//  boost::mpl::bind3<
//         boost::mpl::quote3<boost::mpl::if_>
//       , boost::mpl::bind1<boost::mpl::quote1<boost::is_reference>, boost::mpl::arg<1> >
//       , boost::mpl::arg<1>
//       , boost::mpl::bind1<boost::mpl::quote1<add_ptr>, boost::mpl::arg<1> > 
//  >::apply<...>
//
// becomes:
//
//  boost::mpl::bind<
//         boost::mpl::quote3<boost::mpl::if_>
//  >::bind<
//       , boost::mpl::bind1<boost::mpl::quote1<boost::is_reference>,
//         boost::mpl::arg<1> >
//  >::bind<
//         boost::mpl::arg<1>
//  >::bind<
//       boost::mpl::bind1<boost::mpl::quote1<add_ptr>, boost::mpl::arg<1> > 
//  >::apply<...>
//
// so that after the 2nd bind we have a different function depending
// on the result of is_reference.
