        <pre>In the code below, T2<int,int> will not have mytype member, as T2<int,int> is
first instantiated in line 2 and then T2<T,int> specialized in line 3.

1 template <typename T, typename> struct T2 {};
2 template struct T2<int, int>;
3 template <typename T> struct T2<T, int> { typedef int mytype; };
4 void foo() { T2<int,int>::mytype i; }

If we swap lines 2 and 3, T2<int,int> will have mytype as T2<int,int> will find
and use the specialization T2<T,int>.

Similar to error: explicit specialization after instantiation, should we error
or warn about this, a specialization that would have changed existing
instantiation if it would have come before it?</pre>
