 MSVC 2010 is able to compile this:
 {{{

 #include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp>
 using namespace boost::multiprecision;

 int main()
 {
     cpp_int a, b;
     void* p = a*b;
     return 0;
 }

 }}}

 GCC 4.7.2 can not compile this code, but it can compile this:
 {{{

 #include <boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp>
 using namespace boost::multiprecision;

 int main()
 {
     cpp_int a, b, c;
     void (*p)() = a*b;
     return 0;
 }

 }}}
