[Bug c++/28130] New: template function(from a class inside a namespace) specialization outside the namespation

["zvonsully at gmail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I define a namespace with a template class with a function:

<code>
namespace NS{//a namespace

template<class T>
class C//a template class inside a namespace
 {
 int f();//a member of C
 };

}//NS

//here is the specialization
template<>
int   NS::  C<int>::f(){return 0;}// !! I placed NS::
</code>

compiler output:
$g++ x.cpp
x.cpp:14: error: specialization of 'int NS::C<T>::f() [with T = int]' in
different namespace
x.cpp:14: error:   from definition of 'int NS::C<T>::f() [with T = int]'
$

I think the compiler should not gice an error.
Workaround until fix: specialization in the namespace

<code>
namespace NS{
template<>
int   C<int>::f(){return 0;}
}
</code>
