This following code sample will crash the MS compiler version 8. I
hope there are some MS folks reading this mailing list, since I have
no idea where else to post this.
#include 
struct A
{
  void operator() ()
  {
       boost::bind( &A::lookup, *this, unsigned char() )();
  }
void lookup( unsigned char& c ) {}
};
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
   A()();
return 0;
}
I know the code is not suppose to compile. Uncommenting the this
pointer in the bind construct will make the code compile fine.
MSVC 8 has several similar crashes. At least it does not crash if you
feed it valid C++ :)
