Debian, and your code works for me. I figured out the problem - I made less_than to serve as a default sorting predicate, so in a few places there is something like this:

void sort (R, T = ElementType!R, alias compare = less_than!T)(R range, T item)
{...}

And since auto ref parameters need actual parameters to deduce whether they should be ref or not, less_than!T isn't an instantiated template - its still an alias, because it still must choose between having ref and value parameters.

So, it looks like I can't use auto ref with less-than. Which is fine, if I need to quickly compare large structures I will just pass in a ref_less_than predicate or something.
