Hi, I've found strange behavior, possibly a bug, but more likely a
problem with my understanding. Here's the code:

template<class KEY> class Foo {
public:
        void Baz() {}
};
template<class KEY> class Bar : public Foo<KEY> {
public:
        void Bum() { Baz(); }
};

(I know it doesn't make much sense, I reduced the problem
down to simplest terms). I get an error compiling:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp$ g++ -c Foo.C 
Foo.C: In member function 'void Bar<KEY>::Bum()':
Foo.C:11: error: there are no arguments to 'Baz' that depend on a template 
parameter, so a declaration of 'Baz' must be available
Foo.C:11: error: (if you use '-fpermissive', G++ will accept your code, but 
allowing the use of an undeclared name is deprecated)

Can someone tell me why Baz is undeclared here?
