This is due to a weird and pretty major bug in MSVC. At least it looks that way from my reading of the relevent bits of the standard.
I've committed a workaround. 

Is this bug still present in MSVC6? It certainly causes problems here (I have a copy of version 5). If so, is there any useful way to submit real bug reports to microsoft?
