// is_instance_of --------------------------------
// 
// is_instance_of_n<A, B>::value is true, if type A is 
// an instantiation of a template B, or A derives from an instantiation 
// of template B
//
// n is the number of template arguments for B
// 
// Example:
// is_instance_of_2<std::istream, basic_stream>::value == true

// The original implementation was somewhat different, with different versions
// for different compilers. However, there was still a problem
// with gcc.3.0.2 and 3.0.3 compilers, which didn't think regard
// is_instance_of_N<...>::value was a constant.
// John Maddock suggested the way around this problem by building 
// is_instance_of templates using boost::is_convertible.
// Now we only have one version of is_instance_of templates, which delagate
// all the nasty compiler tricks to is_convertible.
