For those who are interested, the utility is now in the boost-sandbox
for your perusal. It's placed in the boost/utility/ directory (type_deduction.hpp). 
An extensive set of tests can be found in the libs/utility/ directory 
(type_deduction_tests.cpp).

Here's a sampler:

    {
        typedef result_of_plus<int, double>::type result;
        BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((is_same<result, double>::value));
    }
    {
        typedef result_of_plus<double, int>::type result;
        BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((is_same<result, double>::value));
    }
