Streaming of a time duration is broken; IMHO the snippet below shouldn't be 
asserted on. To make things consistent, alternatives could be to impose a 
limit of 100 hours in the concept of a time duration, to introduce a 
limited_time_duration concept, to follow ISO 8601, or to allow more than 99 
hours.

time_duration a = hours( 10 );   // OK
std::cout << a << std::endl;     // OK

time_duration b = hours( 100 );  // OK
std::cout << b << std::endl;     // Assertion failure

Kind regards,
