The problem here seems to be the "const" keywords...

remove both of them and it'll work. (your typedef did do that...)

But I have no idea why it does this...

The C++'s handling of const parameters in templates might be the cause,
(I should probably look at standard how it should work..). This might
be correct behavior though .. :)
