The specific answer to your specific problem?  No.  Oh yeah, for_each
wasn't documented in 1.33.1... and apparently it isn't documented in
the CVS head either (still?  Aleksey?)

In the case above, only mpl::identity<T> needs to be
default-constructible for each type in the list... or that was my
intention Ach!  My mistake...
    template <class T> 
    struct make_identity { typedef mpl::identity<T> type; };
    mpl::for_each<my_vec, make_identity<_> >(call_f());
should work.
