-An earlier version of this concept checking system was developed by
-the author while working at SGI in their C++ compiler and library
-group. The earlier version is now part of the SGI STL distribution. The
-boost concept checking library differs from the concept checking in
-the SGI STL in that the definition of concept checking classes has
-been greatly simplified, at the price of less helpful verbiage in the
-error messages.

-The idea to use function pointers to cause instantiation is due to
-Alexander Stepanov. I am not sure of the origin of the idea to use
-expressions to do up-front checking of templates, but it did appear in

-Thanks to Matt Austern for his excellent documentation and
-organization of the STL concepts, upon which these concept checks
-are based. Thanks to Boost members for helpful comments and
-reviews.
