The condensed code that generates the error in the last e-mail is as
follows:

template<typename T = some_type, std::size_t N=3> my_class {
     public:
         my_class(const T& i0) {
              BOOST_STATIC_ASSERT(N==1);
              m_data[0]=i0;
         }
     private:
         T m_data[N];
}

I realize that N defaults to 3 and all, but without making any sweeping
changes, is there a way to force MSVC++ 2010 to just compile, considering
this was compiling fine with MSVC++ 2008?

Thanks,
--Thomas.
