4.6 gets the error right, what you're doing is equivalent to:

struct pair
{
  pair(const char*, int) { }
};

struct array
{
  pair data[1];
};

array a { { "smile", 1 } };

And that isn't valid. The error 4.6 gives for that is:

t.cc:11:26: error: too many initializers for 'pair [1]'
t.cc:11:26: error: could not convert '(const char*)"smile"' from 'const char*'
to 'pair'

Which is very similar to the error 4.6 gives for your original code, except he
types in your original are more complicated because they involve templates and
typedefs.
