I realise that fix is only a search and replace away... but the code is 
obfuscated enough already by all the enable_if stuff without having to use 
fully::qualified::names everywhere.

I've filed a bug report: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8679

Can we just use the separately compiled boost.test in the mean time?
