Hey Chris,

Steven Watanabe points out that this is due to a hardcoded limit of 24 
arguments in type_traits' is_member_function_pointer.

I've put a test that demonstrates a workaround on my python branch:

http://gitorious.org/~straszheim/boost/straszheim/commit/02776bcf430aa1dd6325c564965bca2a3c11f358

Which will make its way back up to svn at some point.  I don't really 
think there is a good argument for increasing the arity of type_traits 
for this case, so I'm going to close the ticket.  Get back to me with 
any questions...
