I did not have a chance to work with update 2 yet, but with update 1 
original type traits have a lot of failures. I was able to fix most 
of it using Sun "special" partial specialization. That is why I 
needed first flag (I will try to lokk what was changed in u.2). Also 
as far as I remember U.2 still does not support any expression with 
not-type tempalte agruments, that is why we need second flag (Again, 
I will try to recheck it with u.2)

Gennadiy.

P.S. Coukd you please take a look on patches that I posted while ago 
on type traits library. I was able to make all type_traits works 
(excluding 241 error in transform traits and couple in other places) 
There could be something usefull.
