Error C1001 on Visual Studio 2015 with std::enable_if

I have some C++11 code that fails to compile on Visual Studio 2015 (Update 2), but compiles without error on both Clang and GCC. Therefore, I am suspecting a compiler bug in Visual Studio, but maybe my code is somehow ill-formed.

My real class BaseUnit is a template wrapper class over a double value, taking care about the physical dimensions of quantities (expressed as SI units m, kg, s, K). For example, the multiplication of a Speed with a Time template instance automatically gives a Distance instance. The problem occurs with the current implementation of the multiplication with a scalar. I have simplified the class as much as I could to show the problem.

#include <type_traits>

template<int M>
class BaseUnit
{
public:
    constexpr explicit BaseUnit(double aValue) : value(aValue) {}
    template<typename U, typename std::enable_if<std::is_arithmetic<U>::value, int>::type = 0>
        BaseUnit operator*(U scalar) const { return BaseUnit(value * scalar); }
    template<typename U, typename std::enable_if<std::is_arithmetic<U>::value, int>::type = 0>
        friend BaseUnit operator* (U scalar, BaseUnit v) { return BaseUnit(scalar*v.value); }
protected:
    double value;
};

int main()
{
    BaseUnit<1> a(100);
    a = 10 * a;  // <-- error C1001 here
    return 0;
}

When compiling on Visual Studio, whatever the command line options, an internal error C1001 appears:

C:\temp>cl bug.cpp

 To work around this problem, try simplifying or changing the program near the locations listed above.

From some experiments, it happens that both operator* definitions are needed for the error to appear. If either the prefix or the postfix version is removed, the sample code can compile fine.

I may fill out a bug report on Microsoft if this behavior is confirmed to be a bug, and not already a well-known issue of the compiler.
