>Description:
Compile the test case below. It reports:

$ gcj -c T.java
T.java: In class `T':
T.java: In method `T.c()':
T.java:17: Can't find method `toString()' in type `'. Candidates are:
  `Base.toString()' in `Base'
  `Cl.toString()' in `Cl'.
       n.toString();
        ^
1 error

Note that the type is blank in the error message and the
"In method" signature. The same error occurs when "Cl" is 
non-static, but in that case the type is correctly given
as `T$Node'

>How-To-Repeat:
class Base
{
  public String toString() {return "btb";}
}

class Cl
{
  public String toString() {return "geh";}
}

public class T extends Base
{
  static class Node extends Cl  {}

  void c(Node n)
  {
    n.toString();
  }
}
