There's no clear solution to this in general on neither MSVC or ICC, and
I experienced it a lot with Spirit Classic.

The problem is that the types generated from template-happy code results
in rather long mangled symbol names, which won't fit into the debug
information fields (4k with MSVC at least).

They are largely benign, and can be shut up through warning pragmas.
