It's not still, it's again :(. The above failures are due to 'is_class'
being broken for reference types, on compilers without partial
specialization support (the type traits is_class test fails as well). The
change at fault -
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/boost/boost/boost/type_traits
/is_class.hpp.diff?r1=1.5&r2=1.6 - is commented as

"Sunpro can't cope with latest is_base_and_derived implementation
added gcc warning suppression to is_class"

which doesn't really match with what the diff shows. It would be great if
John shed some light on it, although I am pretty sure the right fix is to
revert to the 1.5 revision.
