Compiling this code

  class Outer {
    public class Inner {
      private int field;
    }
    void someMethod() {
      Inner s = new Inner();
      s.field = 5;
    }
  }

with gcj -C gives
 
  test.java: In class `Outer':
  test.java: In method `someMethod()':
  test.java:7: Can't access private field `Outer$Inner.field' from `Outer'.
                s.field = 5;
                 ^
  1 error

while jikes/javac compiles it just fine. Note that private
fields in static inner classes should also be accessible
from the outer class.
