[Bug c++/11703] New: root namespace sometimes not working

["jan dot kratochvil at redhat dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

class C { public: int i; } c; int main () { typeof (::C::i) x = c.i; return x; }

GNU gdb (GDB) 7.1.50.20100614-cvs
(gdb) start
(gdb) ptype C::i
type = int
(gdb) ptype ::C::i
No symbol "i" in current context.

But the C++ compiler apparently accepts `::C::i'.

I believe this bug should be fixed only with a new C++ parser.
Submitting as a KFAIL tracker bug.
