 * See boost::numeric_cast<> for the general idea.
 * Most "if" statements involve only compile-time constants, so the
 * optimizing compiler can do its job easily.
 *
 * With most compilers, the straightforward implementation produces a
 * bunch of (legitimate) warnings.  Some template magic helps, though.
