            Bug ID: 30994
           Summary: Should NamedDecl::declarationReplaces consider friend
                    status?
           Product: new-bugs
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT

          Priority: P

Given the code

namespace boost {
template <class> class shared_ptr { 
  template <class> friend class shared_ptr;
};
}

shared_ptr<char> c;
shared_ptr<int> i;

shared_ptr<char> is created with its TemplateDecl being the class shared_ptr
while shared_ptr<int> TemplateDecl is the friend TemplateDecl created in
shared_ptr<char>.

This happens because the friend TemplateDecl created in shared_ptr<char>
replaces the original class TemplateDecl.

It seems inconsistent that both ClassTemplateSpecializationDecl have different
TemplateDecl.

To solve this, we could demand same friendness in
NamedDecl::declarationReplaces

bool NamedDecl::declarationReplaces(NamedDecl *OldD, bool IsKnownNewer) const {
...
  // Friend should not replace non-friend.
  if (OldD->getFriendObjectKind() != getFriendObjectKind())
    return false;
