Nope, there's already an operator= for all the backends, but the argument 
must be a type listed in one of the backends typelists, so the fix is:

   // Find the type as wide as U that T is assignable from:
   typedef typename boost::multiprecision::detail::canonical<U, T>::type 
int_type;

   // This will store the result.
   if(U(p % U(2)) != U(0))
   {
      result = t;
   }
   else
      result = int_type(1);
