What is wrong is that
a) the template gets instantiated with T = int ccc::{anonymous}::* rather than T
= int ccc::* and
b) &ccc::i is calculated relative to the union base address rather than the
classes one, so if there are class members preceding the union (or base
classes), then this still continues to be zero (note that I understand that the
actual value of the member pointer should not be used, but in a debugging
context it may be of actual use).
