[Bug c++/32870] New: Unclear error message when declaring struct in wrong namespace

["scovich at gmail dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Compiling this code:

struct Foo {
  struct Bar;
  Foo();
};
namespace Baz {
  Foo::Foo() { }
  struct Foo::Bar { };
}

Gives the following two error messages:
test.C:6: error: definition of 'void Foo::Foo()' is not in namespace enclosing
'Foo'
test.C:7: error: declaration of 'struct Foo::Bar' in 'Baz' which does not
enclose 'struct Foo'

The first error is nice and clear; the second would be much easier to
understand  quickly if it also identified 'Baz' as a namespace.

Note: this bug dates back at least as far as g++-3.4.4 (tested on 3.4.4, 4.1.2,
4.2.0 and 4.3-20070716)
