[Bug c++/17649] New: template protected member: no visibility in derived class

[simon dot marshall at misys dot com]

If a base class has a protected member, then a derived class method should have 
access to its member.  However, for template classes only, the derived class 
does not.  (interestingly, derived class members do appear to have access to 
the member in another derived class object - just not in the this object.)  
This is a regression from 3.3.4.
