Dimensional Fund Advisors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_Fund_Advisors) diversify among currencies, markets, and asset classes according to some math I don't really understand. They seem pretty sharp, though, and they're low-load for the buy-and-hold version (they have market timing funds designed to lower the fluctuation at the cost of lowering the long-term return).
The problems they don't solve is how to allocate the assets between currencies. Also part of my money is in fixed income papers. So even when not trying to beat the market, there are some decisions I would like to leave to a professional.
