I tried it a little bit 2 years ago. My experience was pretty much:
1) Encounter unexpected behaviour with standard features
2) Ask irc for help
3) Response: shrug must be a compiler bug

Put it this way, the only compiler bugs I've had in the last year or so have been c gen errors, maybe two in the past year of pretty heavy use. All of those have been because I've been doing something silly with templates.
