I find Boost.Phoenix really useful in cases like this, because it comes
with out-of-the-box support for lazy wrappers for STL functions:

#include <boost/phoenix/core.hpp>
#include <boost/phoenix/stl.hpp>
...
using boost::phoenix::arg_names::_1;
...
x.enumerateStrings(phoenix::push_back(phoenix::ref(strList), _1));

Full example attached. I don't have MSVC handy to try it out, but
it compiles with GCC, and it solves the problem that was causing
your example to fail to compile, so it should work.
