Comment:

 I'm unable to reproduce here - anyone have a test case?

 In any case, circular_buffer is abusing call_traits::param_type which is
 designed for parameters and ''not'' return values.  And yes it really
 should be const ;-)

 Use call_traits::value_type or call_traits::const_reference for those
 return types (I think I would settle for the latter).
