I do.

Maybe not a lot, but often enough.  I'm sure we have quite a few
synonyms for it in various headers.  Did you search for just
"TYPENAME"?

I find 

  BOOST_ARG_DEPENDENT_TYPENAME
  BOOST_MSVC_TYPENAME
  BOOST_DEDUCED_TYPENAME
  BOOST_UBLAS_TYPENAME
  BOOST_SPIRIT_TYPENAME... etc.

OK, I'm tired of typing these now.

It really uglifies code to have to add the workaround every place you
need it.
