>Description:
egcs++ crashes when compiling a legal code,
in which template is partially specialized in a different
namespace from it's declaration. A few things can be used
to fix the bug: 1) declare the template in the same namespace as
its specialization and 2) remove empty class Fake{}; from
the partial specialization

Synopsis: egcs++ crashes on template specialization from different namespace

Responsible-Changed-From-To: unassigned->gdr
Responsible-Changed-By: gdr
Responsible-Changed-When: Mon Aug 13 13:58:33 2001
Responsible-Changed-Why:
    Boo!
State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: gdr
State-Changed-When: Mon Aug 13 13:58:33 2001
State-Changed-Why:
    Firstly, your program is ill-formed: You cannot (partially) specialized
    a template in a namespace different from the one in which the primary
    template was declared.
    
    Secondly, GCC-3.x no longer crashes :-)
