I don't know what "MPL driven" means, but...

Yes, it's the only option if you want to get the type of bind(...)
into that template argument list.  You need to pass it through typeof,
since bind(...) is always a runtime expression.

MPL composes (compile-time) metafunctions
Boost.Lambda composes (runtime) functions

(do you parenthesize everything?)  (just wondering.)
