/* Safe mode machinery, in the spirit of Cay Hortmann's "Safe STL"
 * (http://www.horstmann.com/safestl.html).
 * In this mode, containers have to redefine their iterators as
 * safe_iterator<base_iterator> and keep a tracking object member of
 * type safe_container<safe_iterator<base_iterator> >. These classes provide
 * an internal record of which iterators are at a given moment associated
 * to a given container, and properly mark the iterators as invalid
 * when the container gets destroyed.
 * Iterators are chained in a single attached list, whose header is
 * kept by the container. More elaborate data structures would yield better
 * performance, but I decided to keep complexity to a minimum since
 * speed is not an issue here.
 * Safe mode iterators automatically check that only proper operations
 * are performed on them: for instance, an invalid iterator cannot be
 * dereferenced. Additionally, a set of utilty macros and functions are
 * provided that serve to implement preconditions and cooperate with
 * the framework within the container.
 * Iterators can also be unchecked, i.e. they do not have info about
 * which container they belong in. This situation arises when the iterator
 * is restored from a serialization archive: only information on the node
 * is available, and it is not possible to determine to which container
 * the iterator is associated to. The only sensible policy is to assume
 * unchecked iterators are valid, though this can certainly generate false
 * positive safe mode checks.
 * This is not a full-fledged safe mode framework, and is only intended
 * for use within the limits of Boost.MultiIndex.
