Agreed.  These two:

mpl
preprocessor

are throwing up a red flag with me.  The type traits library was 
intended to be "fundamental" in the sense that it provided a base upon 
which other libs could be built without dragging in a lot of other 
stuff.  I've never before envisioned it as "middle-ware".

Do either of mpl or preprocessor depend on type traits?  What is the 
motivation for the dependence of type traits on mpl and preprocessor?
