2211	Can not create image of Regular type	john.femiani@…	Hailin Jin	"The GIL docs say images, views, and locator's can be created from any type that satisfies the GIL concept 'Regular'

quoted from boost/gil/image.hpp:
{{{
#!cpp
/// Note that its element type does not have to be a pixel. \p image can be instantiated with any Regular element,
/// in which case it models the weaker RandomAccess2DImageConcept and does not model PixelBasedConcept
}}}

Unfortunately this does not seem to be true, even the simple test attached fails to compile.

Depending upon whether I define the image to be planar or not, I get errors with different metafunctions:
 
for IsPlanar == true: 
     the error is in the view_type_pixel metafunction, which invokes channel_type.
if IsPlanar == false:
    the error is in the is_planar metafunction.
