Geometry azimuth does not compile for geographic coordinates

Description
Calling azimuth
to find the relative bearing of one point to another in geographic coordinates does not compile, e.g.:
typedef boost::geometry::cs::geographic<boost::geometry::radian> Wgs84Coords; typedef boost::geometry::model::point<double, 2, Wgs84Coords> GeographicPoint; typedef boost::geometry::srs::spheroid<double> SpheroidType; double azimuth(GeographicPoint boost_a, GeographicPoint boost_b) { return boost::geometry::detail::azimuth<double>(boost_a, boost_b); }
or
double wgs84_azimuth(GeographicPoint boost_a, GeographicPoint boost_b) { SpheroidType spheriod(wgs84::a, wgs84::b); return boost::geometry::detail::azimuth<double>(boost_a, boost_b, spheriod); }
The problem seems to be caused on line 52 of azimuth.hpp
in geometry/algorithms/detail, it is:
return geometry::detail::vincenty_inverse<ReturnType, false, true>
when it should be:
return geometry::detail::vincenty_inverse<ReturnType, false, true>::apply
The amended line compiles and gives reasonable results.
