Peder,

There's a workaround to non-deduced context, but using it requires
specializations for each instantiation of the outer class.
At least I think it works.  I've used it with intel's compiler
and it seems to work.  A discussion of the workaround and
a possible solution in a minor change to the language is
discussed in:

HTH.
