[boost] Re: BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT under MSVC

There is something strange about numeric_limits here, the following code
compiles OK:

# include <limits>
template <class T> struct int_check
{
    BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(std::numeric_limits<T>::is_specialized == false);
};
typedef int_check<int> check; 

There's something strange going on with gcc and Borland C++ as well: they
appear not to care one way or another (I can't get the test to fail with
these compilers).
