[Bug c++/38613] extern template suppresses VFT but should not

[jason at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Comment #8 from jason at gcc dot gnu dot org  2008-12-29 19:56 -------
C++98 does not exclude the GCC behavior: it only says

  The explicit instantiation of a class template specialization implies the
instantiation of all of its members not previously explicitly specialized in
the translation unit containing the explicit instantiation.

I'm going to raise a core issue about the C++0x situation.
