virtual inheritance problem with class template specializations

[Tseng, Ling-hua]

As the comments of the following C++ code,
I got the ambiguous error in the specialized class " PThreadTimer<vo id *(*)(void *)> ".
I performed the virtual inheritance mechanism on its base classes : "PThreadBas e" and "PThread<> ",
and then the derived template class "PThreadTim er< >" could pass the compilation without any ambiguous errors.
But it's occured in the specialized class " PThreadTimer<vo id *(*)(void *)> ".

Why are the ambiguous errors only occured in the specilized class?

My compiler is gcc 3.3.3 [FreeBSD] 20031106, Thanks a lot.
