           Summary: Rejects using constructor name as a template
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: C++
        AssignedTo: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
        ReportedBy: schaub-johannes at web.de
                CC: llvmbugs at cs.uiuc.edu, dgregor at apple.com


The following explicit specialization and instantiation look well-formed, but
clang complains

struct A { 
  template<typename T>
  A() { }
}; 

template A::A<int>();
template<> A::A<float>() { }

"main1.cpp:6:13: error: qualified reference to 'A' is a constructor name rather
than a type wherever a constructor can be declared
template A::A<int>();"

It complains that it yields a constructor name even though we actually use it
in a context that a constructor name is perfectly viable for.
