  14.7.3  Explicit specialization                       [temp.expl.spec]

15An  explicit specialization of a static data member of a template is a
  definition if the declaration includes an initializer;  otherwise,  it
  is  a  declaration.  [Note: there is no syntax for the definition of a
  static data member of a template that requires default initialization.
     template<> X Q<int>::x;
  This  is a declaration regardless of whether X can be default initial-
  ized (_dcl.init_).  ]
