This is a spin-off for the diagnostic issue from PR 25638:
=========================================
struct A { ~A(); };
struct B
{
template<int> friend A::~A();
};
=========================================
For the above code we get the error message:
bug.cc:5: error: prototype for 'A::~A()' does not match any in class 'A'
bug.cc:1: error: candidate is: A::~A()
The error message could be better:
1) A destructor can never be a template. This is not mentioned yet.
2) We only print 'A::~A()' as the prototype. We should probably print
that we have a template here. Otherwise there's no difference to the
rejected candidate.
