Try this page:
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostDocs/GettingStarted for an
overview of setting up the toolchain on Windows or Linux, and for how to
check that it's working correctly.
Then cd into libs/type_traits/doc and do a:
bjam
There may be some complications building in the sandbox rather than the
Trunk but ping me if that's the case.

Just ask :-)
It helps if the docs are readily viewable over the web though.
Welcome back and thanks for not forgetting about these!
