I have just fixed the typeof problem on the release branch. (I've also verified that it makes the common_type regression go away without causing additional failures for either the typeof or type_traits libraries.)
I know it's not our policy to issue point releases, but totally breaking a major header (boost/type_traits.hpp) for a primary test compiler (msvc-7.1) seems like a good reason to make an exception. Does anybody feel otherwise?
Since msvc-7.1 doesn't appear in the test matrix for the release version I don't see how it can be considered a primary test compiler.
That list is based on the test compilers. There's a 7.1 release tester: http://www.boost.org/development/tests/release/daw-msvc71.html Daniel
