   Heh. Oops. Shows what happens when you are distracted in the middle
of sending an email. :-) The second should be:

   void Any::operator<<=(const char* s);

(Note the removed '&'.) The point being that you need a temporary for
the first one to work, but not this one. There may be some other reason
this is this way but I haven't looked into it. (For example, there may
have been a conflict with the Any encoder for String_var.)
