 r=7176
 
 Is this PR related to (or the same) as the following much simpler compile
 problem?
 
 typedef int foo;
 
 struct bar {
   foo foo;
 };
 
 $ f:/mingw/bin/g++ -c typename_reuse.cc
 typename_reuse.cc:4: declaration of `foo bar::foo'
 typename_reuse.cc:1: changes meaning of `foo' from `typedef int foo'
 
 BTW, I don't write code like that myself - it's representative of some code
 in the Microsoft DirectX samples.
 
 Regards,
 Raoul Gough.

 This has many similarities with the problem I submitted, but I don't
 know enough about language details or the compiler to venture an
 opinion.

The following preprocessed source should compile without errors, but doesn't:

# 1 "DateTimeNS.cpp"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command line>"
# 1 "DateTimeNS.cpp"
namespace Test {

template <typename Result, typename Value> inline Result convert(Value v) {

class DateTime {
    friend DateTime Test::convert<DateTime,long>(long);
    static long convert(const long double & v);

template <> inline DateTime convert<DateTime,long>(long v) {
        return DateTime();
}

long DateTime::convert(const long double & v) {
        return long(v);

}

The error messages are:
DateTimeNS.cpp:9: declaration of `static long int Test::DateTime::convert(const
   long double&)'
DateTimeNS.cpp:3: changes meaning of `convert' from `Result
   Test::convert(Value)'
