Gaby,
§14.5.3/1: "A friend of a class or class template can be [...] a specialization
of a function template or class template, [...]".
I think that the code is valid, even though I see that it actually gives a lot
of problems to the compiler, because it has to realize that the function
friendship is type-dependent (on the template parameter of A, since it matches
one of its specializations), so the access control should be postponed till A's
instantiation (due to two-stage name lookup).
