Re: [boost] type_traits / is_compound

given the Standard's wording in 3.9/1:

"... There are two kinds of types: fundamental types and compound types.
..."

isn't the current implementation of is_compound overly complex? Can't we
just change it to basically match:

  is_compound = !is_fundamental

given a working version of is_fundamental of course, but this seems
easier than providing an always safe and portable is_class or other
stuff required for the current version.
