[Bug c++/21924] New: namespace ignored

["andre dot maute at gmx dot de" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

the following code compiles with 3.4.4, 4.0-20050430 
 
---------------------------- 
namespace element { 
struct Element {}; 
void connect( Element* e1, Element* e2 ) {} 
} // namespace element 
 
void foo_connect( element::Element* e1, element::Element* e2 ) { 
        connect(e1,e2); 
} 
---------------------------- 
 
Isn't it necessary to open the namespace in foo_connect?
