------- Additional Comments From bangerth at dealii dot org 2005-05-06 22:21 ------- I think that's a good question. We've had this before in some other PR. The problem is that because the template parameter is explicitly specialized, rather than deduced, SFINAE doesn't apply and the compiler can't silently remove the second template from the overload list to choose the first. I don't remember how this was resolved... W.
