Nope. AFAIK, call resolution from inner classes isn't really specified
anywhere. There are even various subtle differences in the way jikes and
javac behave (javac seems more inclined to make guesses, while jikes is
more likely to ask you for explicit qualification).
I think the paragraph from the "1.1 update" page that Tom posted is about
as good as it gets, it all depends on how you interpret it.
