[Bug c++/35890] New: __attribute__((format)) fails for methods of template classes

[zak at transversal dot com]

The following code, which compiles cleanly in gcc 4.2.3, produces an error with
4.3.0:

----
template< typename T >
struct X {
        void f(const char *fmt, ...)
        __attribute__((format (printf, 2, 3) ));
};

template class X< void >;
----

fmt_et.cc: In instantiation of 'X<void>':
fmt_et.cc:7:   instantiated from here
fmt_et.cc:4: error: 'printf' was not declared in this scope
fmt_et.cc:4: error: unrecognized format specifier


The error occurs both with explicit instantiation of the class (as above) and
with implicit instantiation via an invocation of the method X<void>::f.  It
does not occur either for a non-template class or if the template is never
instantiated.
