 states:

 > there must be a specialization of `traits::ring_type` defining the type
 of its exterior ring and interior rings as type

 As far as I can tell, the specializations must actually be of
 `traits::ring_mutable_type` and `traits::ring_const_type`. There is no
 `traits::ring_type` template to specialize.

 A similar issue exists with the documentation referring to
 `traits::interior_type` -- this should instead refer to
 `traits::interior_mutable_type` and `traits::interior_const_type`.
