 Please read again: "The keyword typename shall only be applied to qualified
 names, but those names *NEED NOT* be dependent."
 In your example, in the second two lines, foo<int>::value_type is a
 non-dependent qualified name. Use of typename is allowed but not required.

 Yup, that DR has nothing to do with this.
