Probably it's an implicit template instantiation thing.  If the definition 
of class T is unavailable and the template function invokes x.foo<1>(0), 
then maybe it is assumed that class T has a template member function whose 
identifier is foo, instead of the code representing a convoluted set of 
comparissons between ints.
