Package: g++-4.1
Version: 4.1.1-11
Severity: normal

It appears that g++ no longer finds a dependent name when it is the
template function itself.

    $cat -n test.cpp
         1  template <class C> void f(C *p)
         2  { f(*p); }
         3
         4  void f(int i)
         5  { i++; }
         6
         7  int main(int argc, char**)
         8  { f(&argc); }
    $g++-4.0 -o test test.cpp
    $g++-4.1 -o test test.cpp
    test.cpp: In function 'void f(C*) [with C = int]':
    test.cpp:8:   instantiated from here
    test.cpp:2: error: no matching function for call to 'f(int&)'
    $

To my understanding from the C++ standard, g++-4.0 behaves correctly.

My reasoning:

    In f(*p), f is a dependent name according to clause 14.6.2, para 1.

    The point of instantiation is f(&argc).

    In f(*p), f is an unqualified-id but not a template-id, so 14.6.4.2
    applies: only functions with external linkage will be found.  However,
    f(int) has external linkage.

    Name lookup (3.4, 3.4.2) does not distinguish between the different
    contexts for the case of an instantiated instantiation.

So, the lookup of f in f(*p) should consider f<C>(C*) and f(int) together,
and select f(int) from them.

When f(int) and its call in the template are renamed to something else,
the lookup succeeds. I do not know of a reason for having template f
hide the existence of function f.

------- Comment #1 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org  2006-09-25 22:54 -------
You are incorrect.  This code is invalid because argument dependent namelookup
does not have an effect on fundumental types.

This sentence is where it goes wrong:
    Name lookup (3.4, 3.4.2) does not distinguish between the different
    contexts for the case of an instantiated instantiation.

14.6.4.2/1 says:
For the part of the lookup using unqualified name lookup (3.4.1), only function
declarations with external linkage from the template definition context are
found.

see the template definition context, so it does distinguish.
