[boost] floating_point_promotion question

including the header file floating_point_promotion.hpp results
in a compile error with the borland compilers.

Is there any chance this could be enhanced to avoid this?

This became apparent when building serialization library
with borland compilers.  This occurs because, the
header is included via a the "convenience" header
type_traits.hpp. Which in turn is used by spirit

Note that this is an example where the usage of a
"convenience" header turns out to be "inconvenient".
In this case it makes the serialization libary and spirit
dependent not only on the code existent when these
libraries were written, but on future code as well.
