No. But I'm not sure my technique is conforming. At first I thought I
could interpret 14.8.2/2 to allow it, but now I think the
interpretation is a bit iffy. Anyway, that's why I never posted it.

Hah! I guess I must have used the same name when I tested it before.
Better stick to 'Thing'. Since I couldn't get it to work on VC6 I
thought the MSVC workaround must be just for 7.0.
So Borland 5.x is really the odd man out here.
