>Description:
Problem:
Internal compiler error while taking (from a member function) the address of a template static member function defined in the same class.

Error messages:
f.cc: In method `void Y::foo()':
f.cc:24: Internal compiler error.
f.cc:24: Please submit a full bug report.
f.cc:24: See <URL: http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/faq.html#bugreport > for instructions.
>How-To-Repeat:
template<class Fn> void f(Fn fn)
{
  fn();
}

struct X
{
  template<class T> static void sm_f()
  {
    // ...
  }
};

struct Y
{
  template<class T> static void sm_f()
  {
    // ...
  }

  void foo()
  {
    f(&X::sm_f<int>); // ok
    f(&Y::sm_f<int>); // Internal compiler error
  }
};
