Problem with 'const' member function templates

The AT&T 3.0 compiler copes with this fine.

The G++ 2.2.2 compiler gives the following error:

	t.c:4: template for method `foo' doesn't match any in class `A<int>'

Without the 'const' specifier, member function specifier, both compilers cope with it fine.
