// 8/07 - how to control NOBUG??
// execute with NOBUG_LOG='ttt:TRACE' bin/try
// 1/08 - working out a static initialisation problem for Visitor (Tag creation)
// 1/08 - check 64bit longs
// 4/08 - comparison operators on shared_ptr<Asset>
// 4/08 - conversions on the value_type used for boost::any
// 5/08 - how to guard a downcasting access, so it is compiled in only if the involved types are convertible
// 7/08 - combining partial specialisation and subclasses
// 10/8 - abusing the STL containers to hold noncopyable values
// 6/09 - investigating how to build a mixin template providing an operator bool()
// 12/9 - tracking down a strange "warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type"
// 1/10 - can we determine at compile time the presence of a certain function (for duck-typing)?
// 4/10 - pretty printing STL containers with python enabled GDB?
// 1/11 - exploring numeric limits
// 1/11 - integer floor and wrap operation(s)
// 1/11 - how to fetch the path of the own executable -- at least under Linux?
// 10/11 - simple demo using a pointer and a struct
// 11/11 - using the boost random number generator(s)
// 12/11 - how to detect if string conversion is possible?
// 1/12 - is partial application of member functions possible?
// 5/14 - c++11 transition: detect empty function object
// 7/14 - c++11 transition: std hash function vs. boost hash
// 9/14 - variadic templates and perfect forwarding
/** @file try.cpp
** Investigation: pitfalls of "perfect forwarding".
** Find out about the corner cases where chained argument forwarding
