This too is already solved if any predicate is acceptable: just use a
predicate functor that forwards via a pointer or reference to another
global predicate. Or (somewhat less efficient but easier) use the
dynamic boost::function predicate that is already included and
boost::bind/lambda/phoenix to a method on this global object.
