---------------------------------------------------------------

The change to tr1/_smartptr.h removes an assertion that _C_ptr is valid. I 
don't know if the assert was necessary in the first place, but it probably 
shouldn't be removed without reason.

Also, I think the _RWSTD_ADDRESS_OF() would be easy to accidentally misuse.

    _RWSTD_ADDRESS_OF (int, i); // cast address of i to an int

Wouldn't it make more sense for __rw_address_of to do the heavy lifting, and to 
write the macro to call through? That would require the free function be moved 
to rw/_defs.h which might not be ideal. It has the advantage that would remove 
requirement for the first macro parameter, which would cleanup the code just a 
little bit. It might also be a good idea to add an overload of __rw_address_of 
for const references.
