 This bug is pratically the same of c++/10394, but it shows a wrong code
 generation issue that was not noticed before:
 
 --------------------------------------------------------------
 #include <iostream>
 
 using namespace std;
 
 template <class _T> struct traits
 {
     typedef long next;
 };
 
 
 template <class _T>
 struct c1
 {
     template <class _UUU>
     struct c2
     {
         c1 c;
     };
 
     c1()
     {
         cout << __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ << endl;
     }
 
 };
 
 
 template <class _T>
 void foo()
 {
     c1<typename traits<_T>::next>::c2<void>();
     typename c1<typename traits<_T>::next>::template c2<void>();
 }
 
 
 int main()
 {
     foo<int>();
 }
 --------------------------------------------------------------
 
 When executed on 3.2/3.3, this prints:
 
 c1<_T>::c1() [with _T = int]
 c1<_T>::c1() [with _T = long int]
 
 when the type should obviously be the same. So it's a bug related to the
 implicit typename/template keywords. It's fixed in 3.4 because implicit
 typename/template are not allowed anymore, so the bug simply does not
 happen. Moreover, it's not a regression because 2.95 was giving an ICE on
 this code.
 
 I guess this should be closed, unless we consider the code generation bug
 serious enough to need a fix on the 3.3 branch.
