Comment (by johnmaddock):

 (In [80234]) Move new test cases into the "tricky" section as many
 compilers can't handle them.
 Revert previous change that used std::is_convertible on GCC as it breaks
 code prior to gcc-4.7.
 Fix MSVC intrinsic to handle function types better.
 Filter out rvalue-refs from is_function.
 Partially apply patch from #7251 to make is_convertible behave more
 according to C++11.
 Refs #7251.
