Variadic template templates and perfect forwarding

Question

This question on the object generator pattern got me thinking about ways to automate it.

Essentially, I want to automate the creation of functions like std::ma

Answer 1

This is probably a GCC quirk. I can get the following to work with a dev snapshot (I don't have a copy of 4.6 right now):

template<
    template class TemplateClass
    , typename... Args

    , typename Result = TemplateClass
    // Also works with the arguably more correct
    // , typename Result = TemplateClass<
    //     typename std::decay::type...
    // >
>
Result
make(Args&&... args)
{ /* as before */ }
