             Bug #: 51593
           Summary: alias templates fail in dependent contexts requiring
                    ::template
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: public@alisdairm.net


The following code is sufficient to demonstrate:

template<typename T>
struct wrap {
template<typename U>
using type = U;
};

template<typename T>
struct test {
using type = wrap<T>::template type<T>;
};

I get the following errors from a gcc built around Dec 10, 2011:

main.cpp:9:10: error: expected nested-name-specifier before 'type'
main.cpp:9:10: error: using-declaration for non-member at class scope
main.cpp:9:15: error: expected ';' before '=' token
main.cpp:9:15: error: expected unqualified-id before '=' token

This idiom seems important for supporting C++11 allocators, which supply just
such a dependent alias.
