Sorry, the "according to" is at the wrong place.
This should read:

Or the other way round: Because the using-declaration for "FooBar" is not
inside a class, it cannot be a member-declaration. Therefore "::Foo::Bar"
cannot be a class-name according to [7.3.3]/6. Which means it has to be
a namespace-name. And that's what GCC's error message says.
