Please always post the error message you get when reporting such a
bug.
### mwcc Compiler:
# File: foo.cpp
# ----------------
# 6: print( ostream & ostr, T const & t, long ) { ostr << t; }
# Error: ^
# illegal operands 'ostream' << 'const list<int>'
# (point of instantiation: 'main()')
# (instantiating: 'print<list<int> >(ostream &, const list<int> &, long)')
line 1 chooses the 2nd overload for print via partial ordering, but
line2 chooses the 1st overload due to something having to do with
2-phase name lookup, since on only the overloads visible at the point
of definition seem to be eligible. That contradicts my understanding
of 2-phase lookup, because print is clearly a dependent name, but
Comeau online agrees with Metrowerks here. Maybe someone else can
fill in the rest of the details.

None of them implement 2-phase lookup.
