Strongly typed enum not recognized by boost::is_enum

Description
Using Intel c++ compiler XE 12.1 the new c++11 strongly typed enum type isn't recognized by boost::is_enum. It is recognized by std::is_enum though:
#include <iostream>
#include <type_traits>
#include <boost/type_traits.hpp>
//...
enum class StrongEnum { first, second };
std::cout << boost::is_enum<StrongEnum>::value << std::endl;
std::cout << std::is_enum<StrongEnum>::value << std::endl;
The output is:
0
1
Notice that the same bug is probably the reason why boost serialization for strongly typed enum's doesn't work either.

With apologies for the delay, this works for me both on Linux and Win32 with the latest 12.1 compiler releases and Boost.Trunk. I don't see any relevant changes between Boost-1.48 and now either. Please reopen if it's still an issue, and please give platform details.
