I tried compiling your example with a snapshot of gcc
from http://www.codesourcery.com/gcc-snapshots/
% gcc -v
gcc version 3.0 20010223 (prerelease)

% gcc Any.cpp
% ./a.out

const char* Any ctor: s = First try.
const char* Any ctor: s = I'm a string!.
Ss Any ctor: z = I'm a string!.
i Any ctor: z = 42.
Ss Any ctor: z = I'm a string!.        

I'm not sure what the workaround for gcc 2.95.2 would be.
