[boost] Newbie question

In the function library the function class, (in function_template.hpp), defines a templated 
single-argument constructor and a copy-constructor. 
How can the compiler ever pick the copy-constructor??

I have experimented with something like this using the VC 7.1 compiler, 
and found that it consequently picks the templated ctor instead of the 
copy ctor. Only by using an enable_if-construct was I able to make it do 
what I wanted. (Unless it was explicit, of course.)
Is this just an MSVC issue?

Please enlighten me.... 8)

p.s.
 I have been looking at the latest boost libraries as obtained from CVS.
