Thanks for fixing this.

And also for adding the accessibility check.
I did not report it, as I was not 100% sure about.

e.g. Comeau online test pass this without error:
(g++ now rejects it as I would have expected.)
-------
struct A {};

struct B : private A {};

int
main ()
{
  B b;
  A* ap = (A*) &b;
  B* bp = static_cast<B*> (ap); //Error
}
