  30       The idea of representing a type as multiple compile-time integers, and passing
  31       these integers across function boundaries using sizeof(), was taken from Steve
  32       Dewhurst's article "A Bitwise typeof Operator", CUJ 2002. This article
  33       can also be viewed online, at <a href="http://www.semantics.org/localarchive.html" target="_top">http://www.semantics.org/localarchive.html</a>.

  36       Special thank you to Paul Mensonides, Vesa Karvonen, and Aleksey Gurtovoy for
  37       the Boost Preprocessor Library and MPL. Without these two libraries, this typeof
  38       implementation would not exist.
