/**
 * This file instantiates a smart-pointer type (rch) to a specific
 * underlying "pointed-to" type.
 *
 * This type definition is in its own header file so that the
 * smart-pointer type can be defined without causing the inclusion
 * of the underlying "pointed-to" type header file.  Instead, the
 * underlying "pointed-to" type is forward-declared.  This is analogous
 * to the inclusion requirements that would be imposed if the
 * "pointed-to" type was being referenced via a raw pointer type.
 * Holding the raw pointer indirectly via a smart pointer doesn't
 * change the inclusion requirements (ie, the underlying type doesn't
 * need to be included in either case).
