IIRC, in Bind stdcall/fastcall support is conditional. I bet if you
patched result_of to have such conditional support for those calling
conventions and submitted a patch, it would be gladly accepted.

Right, you can overload operator() on const, so it matters for return
type computation.

I hope phoenix supports this eventually.

Thanks!
