Is there any general guidance for moving headers out of boost/pending? Do we really need to include a forwarding stub for these? I'd like to consider headers in boost/pending as "not final" and therefore we should be able to move headers out of there without leaving a forwarding stub.
The general approach should be to leave the forwarding stub with BOOST_HEADER_DEPRECATED in it for a release or two, allowing existing users to migrate, then remove; but for this to work there needs to be an alternative to which people can migrate. Do we have an equivalent of lowest_bit in Boost.Integer? Is it just log2?
