Uggg. That's definitely a compiler bug, and a very annoying one at that. As
was suggested, using the type form of enable_if should probably work. On
the plus side, I imagine this bug will be fixed given that there is
std::enable_if now, which takes a boolean constant (and no corresponding
disable_if or type forms), so people even outside of the boost community
will be running into the same problem.
