Firstly, (just in case you don't know this one) if you select the error 
message and hit F1 it should give you more information.

In this case the error info is...
"Error Message
compiler limit : 64K limit on size of a type record has been exceeded


This error could occur if a symbol has a decorated name exceeding 247 
characters. To resolve, shorten the symbol name.

When the compiler generates debug information, it emits type records to 
define types encountered in source code. For example, type records 
include simple structures and argument lists of functions. Some of these 
type records can be large lists.

There is a 64K limit on the size of any type record. If that 64K limit 
is exceeded then this error will occur.

C1067 can also occur if there are many symbols with long names or if a 
class, struct, or union has too many members."

Given the lengths some of the template names run to, long names seems a 
likely cause.
I don't actually know the solution to this one, but I seem to recall it 
being mentioned in one of the faq, the documentation or the mailing list.
I'd search through them for info on long symbol names.

Good luck,

Keith Ealanta
