----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------
 Oracle Solaris Studio (former !SunStudio) C++ compiler supports native
 typeof since version 5.9. At the same time, support for typeof emulation
 is not so good (many compilation errors). It would be beneficial for Boost
 users if Boost used native typeof instead of emulation.

 Here is proposed patch:
