[Bug c++/25260] New: Forward explicit intantiation declaration doesn't mix well with static integral member

[nicos at maunakeatech dot com]

Compiling:
template<class T>
class A
{
public:
   static const unsigned int n = 1;

   void foo ()
   {
      int i = n;
   }
};

extern template class A<int>;

int main ()
{
   A<int> a;
   a.foo ();
}

fails with:
foo.cpp: In member function 'void A<T>::foo() [with T = int]':
foo.cpp:9:   instantiated from 'const unsigned int A<int>::n'
foo.cpp:9:   instantiated from 'void A<T>::foo() [with T = int]'
foo.cpp:18:   instantiated from here
foo.cpp:9: error: explicit instantiation of 'A<int>::n' but no definition
available
