Hi,

I found some strange behaviour, which I do not know wheter this is intended
behaviour or a compiler bug.

====================================
namespace n1 {
    template<class O>
    struct to1 {
    };
    struct o2 {
    };
};

namespace n2 {
    using n1::to1;
    using n1::o2;
    struct o3 {
    };
};

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    n1::to1<double> ato1;
    n1::o2 ao2;

    // the following line does not compile
    n2::to1<double> bto1;  // syntax error : missing ';' before '<'

    n2::o2 bo2;
    n2::o3 bo3;

    return 0;
}

====================================

I am using VC6 so I wouldn't be too much surprised if it is the compilers
fault.
Does anyone know?

Thank you,
Roland

gcc 3.2 compiles this with no errors
