template<typename T> struct A {
    template<typename U> void Foo(){} };
template<typename V>struct B {
    void Bar(V* v) {
        v->template Foo<int>();
        v->Foo<int>();
        }
    };
int main() {
    A<bool> a;
    B<A<bool> > b;
    b.Bar(&a);
    }

gets you:

~/ootbc/common/test/src$ g++ foo.cc
foo.cc: In member function `void B<V>::Bar(V*)':
foo.cc:6: error: expected primary-expression before "int"
foo.cc:6: error: expected `;' before "int"

The actual problem is the missing explicit "template" qualification. Surely the compiler can recognize "<int>" as a template argument list in this case. I grant that templates with data elements cannot be recognized in such a context:
