>Description:
g++ cannot disambiguate two overloads of operator* if the arguments are templates and the class doing the overloading
uses both member fn overloads and friend template fn overloads.

Following code gives the compile error. This code compiles on 
the Comeau online compiler, and as far as I can tell is 
legal code.

See (commented out) workaround in code.
