>Environment:
gcc 2.95, 3.1pre, 3.2 mainline
>Description:
The following snippet doesn't compiler, although I believe
it should. The copy operation is caused by me qualifying
the name of the member variable "t" with the name of the
base class. The original code came from an application
where the base class exists twice and a qualification is
actually necessary.

Regards
  Wolfgang

-----------------------code------------------------
struct T {
    T();
  private:
    T (const T&);
};

struct Base {
    T t;
};

struct Derived : public Base {
    void f() {
      const T &t_ref = Base::t;  // taking reference, not a copy!
    };
};
