[cfe-users] compiler bug or language feature?

Hi,

I don't know if I encountered a compiler bug in clang 3.3 or if this is 
one of the many subtle c++ exceptional cases:

When I try to compile the attached file (using: clang++ -std=c++11 
test.cpp) I receive a compiler error:

"test.cpp:15:42: error: identifier 'SmartPtrType' in object destruction 
expression does not name a type
  ~SmartUnion() {m_sptr.SmartPtrType<T>::~SmartPtrType(); }"

g++ compiles the file without problem.

clang compiles it, too, if I explicitly introduce a typedef for 
SmartPtrType<T> and call this typedef name instead:

typedef SmartPtrType<T> smartptr_type;
~SmartUnion() {m_sptr.smartptr_type::~smartptr_type(); }

Is this a subtle language feature or a compiler bug?

Daniel
