[boost] Compile time assertions

Hi all,

I've heard various mentions in the past (here?) about implementing compile
time assertions and wondered if anyone had considered implementing them for
boost as part of a general debugging section to the library.

I've looked at Kevin Van Horn's
http://www.xmission.com/~ksvhsoft/ctassert/ctassert.html

(he also has some interesting other stuff much like type_traits but
pre-dating the standard which might be worth a cursory look by John Maddock
et al. http://www.xmission.com/~ksvhsoft/ under misc software components)

Does anyone know of any other links explaining potential pitfalls or
possible further enhancements to this?
