[Bug c++/43368] New: different access to templated structure static field give different results

[pogonyshev at gmx dot net]

Tested with Debian testing 4.4.3-3 and 4.3.4-8.

Compiling this code snippet:

template <int& field>
struct Foo
{
  static  int
  bar ()
  {  return field;  }
};

template <bool>
struct X
{
  static  int  x;
  typedef  Foo <x>  foo;
};

// This makes first statement in main() compile, but not the second...
template <>
int  X <false>::x = 0;

int
main ()
{
  X <false>::x;
  X <false>::foo::bar ();
}

with 'g++ test.cpp -o test' gives the following error on linking stage:

/tmp/ccuo8N2e.o: In function `_ZN3FooILZN1XIXT_EE1xEEE3barEv':
test.cpp:(.text._ZN3FooILZN1XIXT_EE1xEEE3barEv[_ZN3FooILZN1XIXT_EE1xEEE3barEv]+0x4):
undefined reference to `_ZN1XIXT_EE1xE'

This is a regression: it works with 4.1, but doesn't with 4.3 or 4.4.  Didn't
test 4.2.
