I used my BS-finding intuition.  Actually, I rewrote the part that was ICE-ing
in a separate test file, but I abbreviated the names, and it worked.  I then
copied it word-for-word and it failed.  I then just changed the name by adding
_XYZ and it worked again. ???

BTW, I provided a delay in BOOST_PP_LIST_FOR_EACH_I that causes it to work also,
so you don't have to change the name.  I have no idea why it makes a difference.
In fact, I tried both a longer name and a shorter name just to see if it was
somehow caused by identifier length.  Apparently not.
