Thank you!

There are a number of problems with it:

1. It's not a patch as requested (nit; it was probably easier for me
   to handle than a patch would've been)

2. It defines an implementation detail function in the boost::
   namespace

3. It uses ALL_CAPS identifiers for non-macro names (TR1, TR2)

Instead of fixing the patch I used a simpler static assertion that
should only fail to work on compilers that don't support
is_convertible (CWPro7 and earlier), which I've already dropped
support for IIRC.

Let me know if aCC becomes happy.
