Comment:

 I'm unable to reproduce this here: Boost.Config ''never'' sets
 BOOST_NO_INCLASS_MEMBER_INITIALIZATION for any gcc compiler version (which
 is what would cause BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT to use enum's rather than a true
 static constant).

 In addition all the type_traits are currently run with -Wall -pedantic
 -Werror and all the tests are passing even on the BSD platforms that are
 tested:
 http://beta.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/type_traits.html


 However, some testing reveals that using an enum in this context causes
 is_unsigned to malfunction anyway, so I'll change the code to always use a
 static constant.

 I'd be interested in knowing why BOOST_NO_INCLASS_MEMBER_INITIALIZATION is
 being set on this platform/compiler combination - are you using a modified
 Boost version at all?
