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

Reduced testcase:

template<int A> struct outer {
  template<int B, int C> struct inner {};
  template<int C> struct inner<A * 2, C> {};
};

Yes, this is valid code. Please file a bug!

You can work around this by hiding the non-type template argument in a type
template argument:

template<int N> struct Int { static const int value = N; };

template<int A> struct outer {
  template<typename B, int C> struct inner {};
  template<int C> struct inner<Int<A * 2>, C> {};
};
