Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW Last reconfirmed| |2015-03-04 Ever confirmed|0 |1 --- Comment #1 from Jonathan Wakely <redi at gcc dot gnu.org> --- It compiles OK if you change it to: make_thing<int>().template func<int>(); which I would have thought is necessary, but EDG and Clang don't require it. Maybe there's some defect report that changed whether the "template" keyword is required there, and G++ doesn't implement that yet.
