Comment (by pdimov):

 Well, not exactly fixed. Under g++ (in C++03 mode) at least, your code
 still doesn't work. You need to do

 {{{
 mystd::shared_ptr<int> get_thing() {
         mystd::shared_ptr<int> r( load_thing() );
         return r;
 }
 }}}

 This:

 {{{
         mystd::shared_ptr<int> r = load_thing();
 }}}

 doesn't work either.

 VC++ doesn't mind.
