Doug,  I read:

   http://www.osl.iu.edu/~dgregor/cpp/variadic-templates.pdf
   section 3.2 on p. 8.

and thought I'd try this initialization, but with the attached I got:

/home/evansl/download/gcc/variadic-templates/gcc-4.1.1/install/bin/g++ 
-c -Wall -ftemplate-depth-100 -O0 -fno-inline 
-I/home/evansl/prog_dev/boost-cvs/ro/boost/sandbox/variadic-templates 
-I"../../../../.." -I"../../../../../../.."  vinit.cpp  -o vinit.gccv.o
vinit.cpp:17: error: too many initializers for 'test'
make: *** [vinit.gccv.o] Error 1

What am I doing wrong?

TIA.  (BTW, this is a great addition to the language!)
