This code was derived by Beman Dawes from Howard Hinnant's time2_demo prototype.
Many thanks to Howard for making his code available under the Boost license.
The original code was modified to conform to Boost conventions and to section
20.4 Compile-time rational arithmetic [ratio], of the C++ committee working
paper N2798.
