I think this is my fault. I was updating the use of config macros,
which caused it to use decltype for Visual C++ 10. For other libraries
I submitted tickets but since no one seemed to be maintaining
result_of I made that change myself. I'll revert it for now but we
should probably change config to define BOOST_NO_DECLTYPE for Visual
C++ 10 if it's buggy on that compiler.
