[Bug c++/15711] New: unable to take address of function template specilization

["chris at uzdavinis dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I expect the following to compile, but it gives a strange error, especially
considering the function is not overloaded and there is only one instantiation
of the template.

template<typename T>
void foo()
{
}

int main()
{
  &foo<int>;  //error: statement cannot resolve address of overloaded function
}
