Thanks very much for emailing me about flex_string. If you could also
insert the following copyright notice, I'd be most grateful (beware of
wrapped lines):

By the way, if anyone is interested in adding flex_string to boost
:o), I have recently updated the code and reached a design and
implementation I'm very happy with.
