110        For modern compilers (those that support arbitrary SFINAE-expressions and
111        decltype/declval) this trait offers near perfect detection. In this situation
112        the macro <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_TT_HAS_ACCURATE_BINARY_OPERATOR_DETECTION</span></code>
113        will be defined after including <code class="literal">&lt;boost/type_traits/has_modulus.hpp&gt;</code>.
114        Please note however, that detection is based on function signature only,
115        in the case that the operator is a function template then has_modulus cannot
116        perform introspection of the template function body to ensure that the type
117        meets all of the conceptual requirements of the actual code.
