[Bug c++/13639] New: enum member is not allowed to have same name as the namespace it is contained in

["rschiele at uni-mannheim dot de" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

An enum member is not allowed to have same name as the namespace it is 
contained in. 
 
The code 
 
namespace a { 
    enum { a }; 
}; 
 
is rejected with: 
 
bug.cc:2: error: `a' redeclared as different kind of symbol 
bug.cc:1: error: previous declaration of `a' 
 
As far as I understand the C++ standard this is perfectly allowed.
