Description
I have a project that I regularly compile against Eigen default branch, that recently has stopped compiling on Visual Studio 2013 with this error:

I tried to compile the Eigen test suite, but everything seems fine for the tests.
The same project compiles fine on Visual Studio 2015 .
Given that the compilation stopped working ~4 days ago, I think that the problem could be related to this commit : 38523517 .
Of from this report is not easy to identify the problem, I can work on a more self-contained example of the problem.
