 According to http://www.boost.org/doc/html/signals/tutorial.html#id1626102

 it should be possible to connect a signal to operator()() in a struct.
 While connecting works indeed disconnecting doesn't (in VS2005 SP1). The
 compile error VS2005 reports is:

 C2678: binary '==' : no operator found which takes a left-hand operand of
 type 'const event_handler' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

 There has been a discussion on the mailing list already - see
