[Bug c++/16501] New: Name of a nested union clashes with the name of a namespace

["lsudhakar at ansoft dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Here is my .i file and there are compiler-errors about a name clash for 'id'.

# 1 "a.cpp"
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command line>"
# 1 "a.cpp"
# 1 "UtilityIds.h" 1
namespace id {
        int leena;
};
# 2 "a.cpp" 2
# 1 "lmclients.h" 1
typedef struct hostid {
        union {
                int i;
                int j;
        } id;
};
# 3 "a.cpp" 2

int main()
{
        id::leena = 10;
        return 0;
}

Are there any compiler options to get rid of this compiler-error?

Thanks,
Leena
