>Description:
	
	Given the code below.  g++ rejects the specialization of ns::foo<true>
	despite the explicit namespace qualification.

	The Message reads:
		ns_templspec.C:5: specializing `struct ns::foo<true>' in
		different namespace
		ns_templspec.C:2:   from definition of `template<bool FLAG>
		struct ns::foo'

>How-To-Repeat:
	
cat <<-'EOT' >ns_templspec.C
	namespace ns {
		template<bool FLAG> struct foo;
	}
	
	template<> struct ns::foo<true> { };
EOT
					
g++ ns_templspec.C

>Fix:
	
	Rewrite the last line as
		namespace ns { template<> struct foo<true> { }; }
