Here is some source code that exhibits the problem:
---------------- begin a.C -----------------
template<class T1, class T2>
struct scalar_divides_assign {
static const bool computed ;
};
template<class T1, class T2>
const bool scalar_divides_assign<T1,T2>::computed = true;
----------------- end ------------------
To see the problem do
$ g++-4.2 -c a.C
$ nm a.o | grep computed
0000000000000000 D _ZN21scalar_divides_assignIT_T0_E8computedE
This symbol shouldn't be emitted, or at least not in this way.
