--- Comment #2 from Martin Sebor  ---
No change in GCC 7.  For reference, other compilers print:

Clang 5.0:
t.C:4:31: error: nested name specifier 'B::' for declaration does not refer
  into a class, class template or class template partial specialization
template  void B::foo () { }
~~^

EDG eccp 4.11:
"t.C", line 4: error: template argument list must match the parameter list
  template  void B::foo () { }
  ^
Oracle CC:
"t.C", line 4: Error: Cannot define member of undefined specialization "B".
1 Error(s) detected.

IBM XLC++:
"t.C", line 4.25: 1540-0708 (S) The template argument 2 does not match the
corresponding template parameter of "template struct B".
