Comment (by raad@…):

 The problem is that VC++12 prefers the variadic slot constructor over the
 non-variadic constructor, so calling slot(boost::bind(...)) always calls
 boost::bind(boost::bind(...)), which doesn't compile.

 If I understand the example in 14.8.2.4.8 of the January 2012 C++ working
 draft
 correctly, this is a compiler bug, so I have filed a bug on Microsoft
 Connect (ID 806150).
