1107	Add weak_use_count to weak_ptr as a debugging aid	Peter Dimov	Peter Dimov	"http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2006/03/102620.php

  This is a feature request to add weak_use_count() to weak_ptr.

  I am not interested in this feature for anything else than a debugging
  aid. Recently, a weakness was highlighted in one of my projects, I had
  stale weak_ptr objects that would remain in core even if all copies of
  weak and shared pointer objects should have been eliminated by now.

  To confirm the bug fix and audit the rest of the code base, a debugger
  was used to set a conditional break point on internal members of
  weak_ptr. I would rather have the ability to write assertions when
  needed hence weak_use_count()."	Feature Requests	new	To Be Determined	smart_ptr		Optimization			jwakely.boost@…
