[Bug c++/26512] New: g++ doesn't recognize user-defined operator<<(ostream, const pair<int, double> &)

["olaf dot dietsche at gfa-net dot de" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

g++ doesn't recognize a user-defined

operator<<(ostream, const pair<int, double> &)

although it recognizes

struct A {};
operator<<(ostream, const pair<int, A> &)

Regards, Olaf.

$ cat gccbug.cpp
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <map>

typedef std::map<int, double> M;
extern std::ostream &operator <<(std::ostream &f, const M::value_type &p);

void f()
{
        M m;
        std::copy(m.begin(), m.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<M::value_type>(std::cout));
}

This one compiles without problems:
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <map>

struct A {
        double d;
};

typedef std::map<int, A> M;
extern std::ostream &operator <<(std::ostream &f, const M::value_type &p);

void f()
{
        M m;
        std::copy(m.begin(), m.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<M::value_type>(std::cout));
}

Putting the operator<<() in namespace std, cirucmvents the compile error too:
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
#include <map>

typedef std::map<int, double> M;
namespace std {
extern std::ostream &operator <<(std::ostream &f, const M::value_type &p);
};

void f()
{
        M m;
        std::copy(m.begin(), m.end(),
std::ostream_iterator<M::value_type>(std::cout));
}

And here is the output of the g++ call:
