main()::__lambda1 is not an accessible base of std::_Tuple_impl<1ul, main()::__lambda1>

Question

Take the following:

#include <utility>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>

struct FooType
{
    FooType(std::tuple<std::function<void()>, std::function<void()>> t)
    {
        std::get<0>(t)();
        std::get<1>(t)();
    }
};

int main()
{
    FooType foo(
        std::make_tuple(
            []() { std::cout << "a\n"; },
            []() { std::cout << "b\n"; }
        )
    );
}

It builds and runs fine with GCC 4.9 and higher, but with GCC 4.8 (which is my build system) the following compiler error results:

Presumably I've hit a "bug" in GCC 4.8's experimental C++11 implementation, but I can't find any discussion about it online. Is this issue familiar to anyone? Is there a cheap workaround?

Passing std::function in tuples is core to the design I've just created — shame on me for building it in Coliru without switching to GCC 4.8 specifically until the end!

Creating a tuple with explicit template arguments works as a workaround:

#include <utility>
#include <functional>
#include <iostream>

struct FooType
{
    FooType(std::tuple<std::function<void()>, std::function<void()>> t)
    {
        std::get<0>(t)();
        std::get<1>(t)();
    }
};

int main()
{
    FooType foo(
        std::make_tuple
        <
            std::function<void()>,
            std::function<void()>
        >(
            []() { std::cout << "a\n"; },
            []() { std::cout << "b\n"; }
        )
    );
}
