boost mem_fn and the void return prob on ms

Hello

Unless this is a silly problem or FAQ...

I'm trying to write code portable to SunC++ (5.2) and MSC++ (6.0).  
And am having problems with std::mem_fun or boost::mem_fn with a 
class member function that returns void.

// pseudo-example code
struct A {
   void func(const double);
};
std::for_each(arr.begin(), arr.end(),
              std::bind1st(std::mem_fun(&A::func),&arr)); // fails
std:;for_each(arr.begin(), arr.end(),
              std::bind1st(boost::mem_fn(&A::func),&arr)); // also 
fails

Should using boost::mem_fn fix the 'void return' problem of MS?  Am I 
missing something else.

Thanks very much
