template <class E, class C>
struct CompFwd;

struct Brick;
  
template <int Dim, class T, class EngineTag>
struct Engine;
  
template <int Dim, class T, class E>
class Array;

template <class Subject> 
struct ComponentView;

template<int Dim, class T, class EngineTag>
struct ComponentView<Array<Dim, T, EngineTag> >
{
  typedef Array<Dim, T, EngineTag> Subject_t;
  typedef typename Subject_t::Engine_t Engine_t;
  typedef Array<Dim, T, CompFwd<Engine_t, int> > Type_t;
};

template <int Dim, class T, class EngineTag>
struct Array
{
  typedef Engine<Dim, T, EngineTag> Engine_t;
  typedef Array<Dim, T, EngineTag> This_t;

  typename ComponentView<This_t>::Type_t
  comp(int i1) const;
};

typedef Array<1, double, Brick> Array_t;
typedef ComponentView<Array_t>::Type_t CView_t;


causes g++ to emit:
tests> g++-3.4 -c notype.cpp      
notype.cpp: In instantiation of `Array<1, double, Brick>':
notype.cpp:19:   instantiated from `ComponentView<Array_t>'
notype.cpp:36:   instantiated from here
notype.cpp:30: error: no type named `Type_t' in `struct ComponentView<Array_t>'

which could be improved to mention the missing of the type is caused by aborted
recursive instantiation of struct ComponentView<Array_t>.  At the moment the
diagnostic is at least misleading, as there is a Type_t in struct
ComponentView<Array_t>.
