[cfe-users] error: non-type template argument depends on a template parameter of the partial specialization

[John Owens]

Thanks John, and thanks to Don Hinton who had an offline suggestion to use default values for template parameters. We’re happy to take any suggestions we can / inspire clang toward handling a few more cases!
