 : Search converges between 2003-03-10-trunk (#149) and 2003-03-11-trunk 
 (#150).
 
 Line-numbered input is:
 ========================================
      1  template <class T> struct Y;
      2    
      3  template <class S> class X {
      4      template <class T> friend void Y<T>::member();

      7  template <class T> struct Y {
      8      void member() {

 Diagnostic output follows, from the last compiler tested:
 input: In instantiation of `X<int>':
 input:9:   instantiated from `void Y<T>::member() [with T = int]'
 input:13:   instantiated from here
 input:4: error: prototype for `template<class T> void Y::member()' does not
    match any in class `Y<T>'
 input:8: error: candidate is: void Y<T>::member()
 
 Compiler output follows, from the last compiler tested:
         .file   "input"
         .ident  "GCC: (GNU) 3.4 20030311 (experimental)"
