I tested Allen's example with VC 7.1.
I got exactly the behavior that he reports with VC8.
(The code compiles. If you remove the template definition for whatever, then it fails to compile.)

Maybe there should be a regression test for this problem.
Something like:

--------------------------------------------------

// Expected behavior: should not compile

#include <boost/any.hpp>
#include <boost/array.hpp>

... all Boost headers ...

#include <boost/xpressive/xpressive.hpp>

shared_ptr<int> sp;

------------------------------------------------
