Ah.  I misread this question and so didn't really answer this it
correctly.

std::tuple inherits from __rw_tuple because the latter class template
exposes the accesssors for head and tail.  The public class does not
expose these internal accessors.  Could you move the accessors into
std::tuple?  Yes, if it were not for the pair specialization as I
mentioned in the first reply.

Brad.
