gcc 3.1: bug with inherited templates when specified by namespace

namespace other
{
template< class T >
class Frog
{
    ...        // doesn't matter what's here
};

}


class MrBlobbyBlab : public other::Frog        // erm... where's the
template parameter?
{
};


The problem is that the above code compiles with no warning or error and
puts god knows what into MrBlobbyBlab as a base class.  Put anything in
"Frog" and it just doesn't matter.

Put a "using namespace other" and change other::Frog to simply Frog and it
comes up with an error as it properly should.

This is with gcc v3.1 in Cygwin.  Can anyone else confirm this problem?
