The difference is that you are instantiating 'foo<int>' in more than one  
place. When you do that, the instantiations must have the same meaning or  
the program is ill-formed. In my example 'f<int>' is only instantiated  
once. That example was intented only to demonstrate why an exported  
template must be recompiled when code that uses it is changed.
