This should absolutely not compile:
-----------------------------
struct A;

template <int> int f() { return A::a; }

int main () {
  return f<2>();
}
-----------------------------
A has no member A::a. However, present 3.4 happily groks
this and returns '0'. Don't anybody ask me what's going
on here...
