I reduced your testcase: 

   template <typename T> void ref(T &) { return 8; }
   struct S { int foo() { return ref(this); } };

I think it is GCC being wrong there.  You should not be able to take a 
reference from 'this'.

You can try boost::cref,  or something like
  S *that = this; ... boost::ref(that)
