Case #1 in Comment #1 is accepted by current G++ 4.1 and mainline branches. I
do not believe Case #2 is valid, as the standard says that a non-type template
argument may be:
the address of an object or function with external linkage, includ-
ing function templates and function template-ids but excluding non-
static class members, expressed as & id-expression
Thus, the parentheses make this case invalid. Admittedly, that's pedantic, but
I think that's what the standard says.
Comment #3 is a separate enhancement request, and should be refiled separately.
Thanks,
-- Mark
