The template parameter 'F' is a nontype template parameter. Nontype template
parameters can only be of integral type. boost::function1<void, int> is a
class type, so it cannot be used as the type of a nontype template parameter.
We might be able to suggest an alternative construct if you give us more
information about the problem you are trying to solve.
