thank you for checking this. Can you add a comment in the source about this?

looks like it can be used:

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/770

too little here, though:

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/libs/python/doc/v2/make_function.html#make_constructor-spec

hmm.. but look, here they are using a shared_ptr (but I doubt this
could work with a quaternion?)
