Yep, I've already notified the Boost list about it in a previous message.
As you have access to a CW compiler, maybe you can play a bit with
the implementation of boost::is_convertible. There are six internal
implementations of the utility in boost/type_traits/is_convertible.hpp:

1. MS specific
2. Borland older compilers
3. GCC and Borland newer compilers
4. EDG, VisualAge and aCC
5. Digital Mars
6. Other compilers

CW is currently using #6, maybe you can test whether it supports, for
instance, #4 and if this solves the problem.
