The SVN head of boost/utility/value_init.hpp produces a Visual C++ 7.1 ICE (see below) when compiling some of our Boost.Python extensions.
Thanks for reporting the ICE caused by the MSVC workaround I committed last week! My apologizes! I didn't know about this issue. The ICE did not occur when doing the unit tests (value_init_test.cpp). Your patch:
Simply inlining get() didn't work. The ICE only went away after I changed (*static_cast<T*>(ptr)).T::~T() to static_cast<T*>(ptr)->T::~T()
Does the ICE also occur when using the destructor of the other base class, const_T_base? If so, it would need a similar patch. I will take a closer look later today, or otherwise tomorrow. And I'll contact Fernando Cacciola, the creator and maintainer of the file.
