The Signals library uses Boost.Function internally, and it picks up
Function's limitation with respect to free functions. If you change the above
to:
sig.connect(&test_sig);
it will compile properly. Make sure you have service pack 5, though, because
otherwise you will get an obnoxious internal compiler error.
[Sorry for the long delay for such a short answer - I thought the problem was
more significant and had put it on the back burner until I had time]
