struct Child : private Parent { using Parent::insert; };

int main() {
        Child c;
        c.insert();  
        c.insert(2);  
        return 0;
}

Problem:

To the best of my knowledge, 'c.insert(2)' should work fine, without any 'is
inaccessible' error.  This code works as expected when compiled with the
'MIPSpro Compilers: Version 7.30'.

I would appreciate a response indicating whether GCC's behavior is a bug.
Perhaps this is an area of ambiguity in the standard.

Thank you,
