Comment (by johnmaddock):

 Eric I'm not sure what I can do here: I don't have that compiler (and
 won't until they decide to release the desktop express edition), but more
 particularly it looks like a clear compiler bug.  That code has been
 unchanged since the beginning of time and always worked well too.  Do you
 have VC11?  If so you could try adding a:

 template <typename T>
 struct cv_traits_imp<T*const*>
 {
     BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(bool, is_const = true);
     BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT(bool, is_volatile = false);
     typedef T* unqualified_type;
 };

 partial specialization to cv_traits_imp.hpp and see if that helps?
