Without N3256 decltype (which does not require type completeness in
function call expressions), some problems cannot be avoided.
For this reason, Boost.Proto explicitly uses tr1_result_of.
For other reasons, I think we could fix them.
We should perform regression tests with BOOST_RESULT_OF_USE_DECLTYPE
for the clients of result_of.
