[Bug c++/14513] Friend name injection problem (implicit declaration)

OK, so here's what happens:  
------------  
struct S {  
    void test (void);  
};  
  
namespace NS {  
  class X {  
      friend class S;  
      static int *i;  
  };  
}  
  
void S::test () {  
  NS::X::i;  
}  
---------------  
gcc thinks the 'friend class S' declaration refers to class ::S and thus  
allows the access in S::test. All the other compilers seem to believe  
that the friend declaration refer to a yet-to-be-declared class NS::S,  
and therefore don't allow access in ::S::test. I have yet to understand  
what the standard really says in this respect. Kriang?
