>Description:

First, my apologies if this report pertains to the known limitation
"Two stage lookup in templates is not implemented".   I am not smart
enough to know whether this is a two stage template lookup problem.
Perhaps your website should give an example of such a problem.

When I compile the attached, self contained program, which features
a member template for which an instantiation will call itself recursively,
compilation fails with the following error message:

gisli.cxx: In method `T *A::exhaustive_search (int) const [with T = 
B]':
gisli.cxx:72:   instantiated from here
gisli.cxx:56: no matching function for call to `A::exhaustive_search 
(int &)'

For what it is worth, the program compiles and runs with recent SGI,
IBM and HP C++ compilers.

>How-To-Repeat:
g++ gisli.cxx
