[Bug c++/18451] New: [3.4 Regression] C++ error message regression

["sschunck at pdf dot de" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

The following erroneous code gives an error message I do not understand

file.cc:

      1 template < class T >
      2 class A
      3 {
      4 public:
      5   class B
      6     {
      7   public:
      8       B( int inVal ) :  m_i( inVal ) { }
      9       int m_i;
     10     };
     11   static B s;
     12 };
     13 
     14 template < class T > A<T>::B A<T>::s( 10 );



gives the following error message witch g++-3.4.3 -Wall -c file.cc

14: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before "A" 
14: error: expected `;' before "A"

I have difficulties in understancing the message

with g++-3.3.2 -Wall -c file.cc

14: warning: `A<T>::B' is implicitly a typename
14: warning: implicit typename is deprecated, please see the documentation for
details

This message seems much clearer to me
