Here is a different implementation that works in gcc versions all the
way back to 2.95:

template <typename T>
struct has_nested_value_type_helper
{
  typedef char (&true_type)[1];
  typedef char (&false_type)[2];
  template <class U> true_type  static impl(typename U::value_type const*);
  template <class U> false_type static impl(...);
};

template <typename T>
class has_nested_value_type
{
  typedef has_nested_value_type_helper<T> helper;
public:
  static const bool value = (sizeof(helper::template impl<T>(0)) ==
                             sizeof(typename helper::true_type));
};
