The problem is that I implemented packaged_task using a std::function
to hold the stored task, and std::function requires a
CopyConstructible target object, but your function object is only
MoveConstructible.

This is a GCC bug, I think I can see an easy way to fix it, but it
will have to wait for 4.8.1 because it's not a regression.
