Alias template specialisation

Question

Can alias templates (14.5.7) be explicitly specialised (14.7.3)?

My standard-fu fails me, and I can\'t find a compiler to test on.

Bjarne says:

Specialization works (you can alias a set of specializations but you cannot specialize an alias)

And, whilst not an explicit rule, "alias templates" are missing from the following list at 14.7.3/1:

An explicit specialization of any of the following:

• function template
• class template
• member function of a class template
• static data member of a class template
• member class of a class template
• member class template of a class or class template
• member function template of a class or class template

can be declared[...]

I think that this is the best guarantee you'll get.
