The c++ compiler does not seem to understand using statements of a template
function in a base class as shown in the example below. I've got one workaround
commented out. Are there any other alternative ways of using the 'using'
statement that the compiler will understand, as my workaround is rather verbose
and prone to error? Is this a known bug and if not, where is the best place to
file the bug. I've tried versions 11, 12, and 12.1.
