[Bug c++/16162] New: [3.4/3.5 regression] Rejects valid member-template-definition

[bangerth at dealii dot org]

Here's a particularly bad regression on the 3.4 branch, since there does 
not seem to be a way to work around the problem. This code should be 
valid: 
-------------------- 
template <int N> struct O { 
    struct I { 
        template <typename T> struct II { 
            void f(); 
        }; 
    }; 
}; 
 
template <int N> 
template <typename T> 
void O<N>::I::II<T>::f () {} 
-------------------- 
 
However, 3.4 branch and mainline reject the code: 
 
g/x> /home/bangerth/bin/gcc-3.4-pre/bin/c++ -c x.cc 
x.cc:15: error: non-template `II' used as template 
x.cc:15: error: (use `typename O<N>::I::template II' to indicate that it is a 
template) 
x.cc:15: error: expected init-declarator at end of input 
x.cc:15: error: expected `;' at end of input 
 
No fun :-((
