When did codegear begin decltype support? The current codegear config  
header configures Boost to assume decltype for all versions, which  
seems suspect.

If codegear supports decltype well enough to configure Boost to use  
it, but not well enough to enable a C++0x-style result_of  
implementation, we could revert to the old result_of for the specific  
codegear version until someone finds a workaround or codegear's C++0x  
support matures. I don't have access to codegear myself.
