980. Explicit instantiation of a member of a class template

[Voted into WP at March, 2010 meeting.]

13.9.3 [temp.explicit] paragraph 1 says,

An explicit instantiation of a function template shall not use the inline or constexpr specifiers.

This wording should be revised to apply to member functions of class templates as well.

Proposed resolution (February, 2010):

Change 13.9.3 [temp.explicit] paragraph 1 as follows:

...An explicit instantiation of a function template or member function of a class template shall not use the inline or constexpr specifiers.
