        <pre>Building this program with clang-cl gives a 'definition of dllimport static
field not allowed'. cl.exe accepts it

template <class> class A {
    public:
  __declspec(dllimport) static int b;
};
template <class _Elem> int A<_Elem>::b;
#if 0
A<int> k;
int o()
{ return k.b; }
#endif

However, if you change the #if 0 to #if 1 then cl.exe will complain about
inconsistent linkage.

This test case is a reduced version of the preprocessed output from

#include <string>
int main()
{
}
