// This is actually the conforming implementation which works with
// abstract classes.  However, enough compilers have trouble with
// it that most will use the one in
// boost/type_traits/object_traits.hpp. This implementation
// actually works with VC7.0, but other interactions seem to fail
// when we use it.
