Comment (by Eduardo de Mattos Kalinowski <eduardo@…>):

 g++ 4.5.2

 For simple types it works, but if there are multiple levels of
 indirection, it does not. The attached example shows that. A
 quaternion<Wrapper<int> > works, a quaternion<Wrapper<Wrapper<int> > >
 does not.

 Of course that example is somewhat silly, but I stumbled across this in a
 case where I do have more than one level of indirection - and not of the
 same class, naturally.
