[Bug c++/34531] New: local typedef conflicts with global definition of a type having the same name


template <typename> class X {};

class Y {
        typedef X<int> X;
};


produces the following error:
redef.cpp:4: error: declaration of 'typedef class X<int> Y::X'
redef.cpp:1: error: changes meaning of 'X' from 'class X<int>'

I don't think, that the error is correct, because as the typedef is inside a
class-definition, X is only shadowed, not redeclared.
The typedef'd type can be referred as Y::X, while the globel would be ::X.
