// Note: The implementation of boost::value_initialized had to deal with the
// fact that various compilers haven't fully implemented value-initialization.
// The constructor of boost::value_initialized<T> works around these compiler
// issues, by clearing the bytes of T, before constructing the T object it
// contains. More details on these issues are at libs/utility/value_init.htm
