> I must, however, admit, that I am currently not able to pinpoint the
precise problem: why does the compiler first think that there is a
conversion from any object to a boost.function object, and only later
notice that it cannot call the object?
That's just the way C++ works. The compiler only checks the declaration
(which is correct), not the definition.
