           give quite a performance boost to coupon calculations) but
           is potentially misleading: by passing the wrong dates, one
           can ask a 6-months index for a 1-year fixing.
 
           For that reason, we're leaving this method private and
           we're declaring the IborCoupon class (which uses it) as a
           friend.  Should the need arise, we might promote it to
           public, but before doing that I'd think hard whether we
           have any other way to get the same results.
