Va.x build 1544 (and older ones)

When I have a local variable:
std::vector<MyClassScope::MyPublicType>& foo;

And I extract method on some code that uses foo I get a funky looking parameter in the method param list.
The Angle brackets and :: are replaced with a non-alphanumeric character (displayed as a square).

P.S. I've always seen this with reference, templated variables.

Can you post a short code sample that shows this effect? I have just tested this using:

static void testExtractVector()
{
	std::vector<MyClassScope::MyPublicType>& foo;
	foo.size();  // extract this line only
}


and I ended up with the new function:

void MyMethod( std::vector<MyClassScope.MyPublicType> &foo )
{
	foo.size();
}


I have seen the problem characters, but not for a while. I know of one bug that will produce then in VA 1544, but this only happens under fairly specific conditions.
