You could try using typedefs, like

    typedef MemPool * pointer_to_MemPool;
    pointer_to_MemPool ACLStrategised<MatchType>::Pool(NULL);

or

    typedef class ACLStrategised<MatchType> ACLStrategised_MatchType;
    MemPool *ACLStrategised_MatchType::Pool(NULL);

Alternatively, would MSVC be happier with references instead of
pointers? (This whould need changes elsewhere, of course.)

    MemPool & ACLStrategised<MatchType>::Pool (NULL);

You might also need extra parentheses in all the above.
