The additional move() does the trick for gcc 3.4 and EDG 245. Thanks!

Unfortunately EDG 238 chokes (enable_if_does_not_work_on_this_compiler<T>) and
gcc 2.96 gives an ICE. I'd be ready to finally give up on gcc 2.96, but EDG 238
is still important (sigh). I'll have to stick to my quick-and-dirty,
old-fashioned auto_array emulation for the time being.

Cheers,
        Ralf
