I see.

Actually I am not sure if it's quickbook, boostbook, or build...  I am
having a number of problem trying to setup the typeod documentation build.
One of them -- I am able to build the docs from the typeof doc directory,
but these docs turned out somewhat garbled in many places, for example:

**********
namespace ex2
{
    template<class T, class U>
    BOOST_TYPEOF_TPL(T() + U()) add(const T& t, const U& u)
    {
        return t + u;
    };

    typedef BOOST_TYPEOF(add('a', 1.5)) type;

    BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((is_same<type, double>::value));
}
 Using <
^^^^^^^
**********

Here is the related fragment from the qbk file
(http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/boost/boost/libs/typeof/doc/typeof.qb
k?view=markup):

**********
In the dependent context use `BOOST_TYPEOF_TPL` instead of `BOOST_TYPEOF`:

    namespace ex2
    {
        template<class T, class U>
        BOOST_TYPEOF_TPL(T() + U()) add(const T& t, const U& u)
        {
            return t + u;
        };

        typedef BOOST_TYPEOF(add('a', 1.5)) type;

        BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT((is_same<type, double>::value));
    }

The above examples are possible because the Typeof Library knows about
