Housing Capital gains exclusion after transfer to trust?

[Thunderbird]

How is the capital gain tax exclusion for residential housing effected
by transfer of the property to a trust?
E.g. bought house for $100K Y2000 (primary residence), transferred
deed to trust in Y2008, property is sold in Y2009 (seller is trust)
for $300K. How is the capital gains tax liability computed?

Grantor trust: No effect. Disregarded for tax purposes. You still get to
exclude your entire $200k of profit.

If you did something else, we will need details on the type of trust you
used.
