Please try again with the version of file sigc++/adaptors/macros/ 
adaptor_trait.h.m4 that is attached to this email. The problem is
the syntax for explicit method template specializations. gcc expects:

my_class.template operator()<my_type> (my_param);

MSVC works with:

my_class.operator()<my_type> (my_param);

Hopefully, the FORTE accepts the latter syntax as well ...

Regards,

 Martin

dnl The idea here is simple.  To prevent the need to 
dnl specializing every adaptor for every type of functor
dnl and worse non-functors like function pointers, we
dnl will make an adaptor trait which can take ordinary
dnl functors and make them adaptor functors for which 
dnl we will of course be able to avoid excess copies. 
dnl (in theory)
dnl
dnl this all depends on partial specialization to allow
dnl us to do
dnl   functor_.template operator() <types> (args);
dnl

dnl I don't understand much of the above. However, I can
dnl see that adaptors are implemented like they are because
dnl there is no way to extract the return type and the argument
dnl types from a functor type. Therefore, operator() is templated.
dnl It's instatiated in slot_call#<>::operator() where the
dnl argument types are known. The return type is finally determined
dnl via the callof<> template - a tricky way to detect the return
dnl type of a functor when the argument types are known. Martin.
