I get a lot of compile errors on MSVC12 
when using boost::bind with more than two 
arguments of which one is a non-const 
reference and constructing a 
boost::function with the result:

#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/function.hpp>

void a(int&, int, int);

int main(){
 boost::function<void(int&, int, int)>
  f(boost::bind(&a, _1, _2, _3));
}

results in
error C2664: 'void (int &,int,int)': 
cannot convert argument 1 from 'const int' 
to 'int &'

There are no compile errors with only one 
or two arguments of which one is a 
reference, and "auto f = boost::bind(...)" 
compiles too.
