The example in 14.8/2 [temp.fct.spec] reads:

template<class T> f(T* p)
{
     static T s;
     // ...
};

There is a redundant semicolon after the closing bracket, which also makes
the code ill-formed (thanks to Greg Comeau for pointing this out), because a
semicolon on its own does not form a declaration, only an empty expression
statement, and there is no context where template-function definitions and
expression statements could be mixed.

Suggestions: remove the redundant semicolon
