Description Andrew Niefer CLA 2004-08-11 16:03:08 EDT 
I think that we are giving the this pointer in template member functions the 
wrong type.Currently we are giving it the type of a pointer to the containg 
class, however, if the containing class is a template class, I think we should 
give it the type of an instantiation of the containing class.  The arguments 
used to instantiate the class would be the same as for spec 14.6.1-1.
(See TemplateEngine.instantiateWithinTemplateScope())

The default copy constructor also has this problem.

I've not yet seen any problems that may be caused by us doing this wrong.  My 
initial attempt to fix this caused more problems.
