  OTOH, thinking about it: There's no function named 'bar' defined anywhere
in the scope of foo.cc, so why should that even compile?

  I have to admit I don't know if the C++ standard requires the environment
of the instantation of the template when compiling the template function or
not. Personally I wouldn't find it illogical if foo.cc above would cause
a compiler error because, after all, there's no 'bar()' function defined
there.
