        <pre>In the code shown below, Clang claims that the call to `foo` within `C::baz()`
is template-dependent and therefore must be prefixed with the `template`
keyword.  I'm not a standards expert, but it does not appear to me to be
template-dependent -- the call clearly always resolves to `A::foo()`. 
Moreover, if the type of `C::b` is changed to `B*` and the call becomes
`b->bar().foo<T>()` then no error is reported, which seems pretty suspicious.

Tested on Clang 3.2 (Ubuntu) and Clang 3.3 (Xcode 5).

G++ (4.7, 4.8) does not report an error on this code.

$ cat test.c++
class A {
public:
  template <typename T>
  T foo();
};

class B {
public:
  A bar();
};

template <typename T>
class C {
public:
  T baz() {
    return b.bar().foo<T>();
  }

private:
  B b;
};
$ clang++ -c test.c++
test.c++:16:20: error: use 'template' keyword to treat 'foo' as a dependent
template name
    return b.bar().foo<T>();
                   ^
                   template
