>Description:
The attached example is (I belive) incorrect C++ - the class
F::Internal is private.

gcc reports an appropriate error, but rather than reporting
it at the line where the friend class is declared, it is
reported for each member of the class apart from ctors and
dtors.

So the error is reported at lines 8 and 13 of the example,
while I would expect it to be reported at line 6 (and
nowhere else).
