  // In some cases return type deduction should fail (an invalid lambda 
  // expression). Sometimes the lambda expression can be ok, the return type
  // just is not deducible (user defined operators). Then return type deduction
  // should never be entered at all, and the use of ret<> does this.
  // However, for nullary lambda functors, return type deduction is always
  // entered, and there seems to be no way around this.

  // (the return type is part of the prototype of the non-template
  // operator()(). The prototype is instantiated, even though the body 
  // is not.) 
 
  // So, in the case the return type deduction should fail, it should not
  // fail directly, but rather result in a valid but wrong return type,
  // causing a compile time error only if the function is really called.

// return_type_X_prot classes --------------------------------------------
// These classes are the first layer that gets instantiated from the 
// lambda_functor_base sig templates. It will check whether 
// the action is protectable and one of arguments is "protected" or its
// evaluation will otherwise result in another lambda functor.
// If this is a case, the result type will be another lambda functor.

// The arguments are always non-reference types, except for comma action
// where the right argument can be a reference too. This is because it 
// matters (in the builtin case) whether the argument is an lvalue or 
// rvalue: int i; i, 1 -> rvalue; 1, i -> lvalue

  // We may have a lambda functor as a result type of a subexpression 
  // (if protect) has  been used.
  // Thus, if one of the parameter types is a lambda functor, the result
  // is a lambda functor as well. 
  // We need to make a conservative choise here.
  // The resulting lambda functor stores all const reference arguments as
  // const copies. References to non-const are stored as such.
  // So if the source of the argument is a const open argument, a bound
  // argument stored as a const reference, or a function returning a 
  // const reference, that information is lost. There is no way of 
  // telling apart 'real const references' from just 'LL internal
  // const references' (or it would be really hard)

  // The return type is a subclass of lambda_functor, which has a converting 
  // copy constructor. It can copy any lambda functor, that has the same 
  // action type and code, and a copy compatible argument tuple.
