 And the name for that class is asn_setof<o>, not just asn_setof.

 I'm not a language lawyer too, but I'm pretty sure that
 in standard c++, only the name of template class itself
 may appear in the class definition not followed by <>.
 The names of any other classes, including bases, must
 always be spelled in full.
