accessing private filds in 3.3.x

[john gladkih]

Hi,

I found one stupid problem after migrating to gcc 3.3 - it does allow to
access private fields in classes. Please, look here:

#define RESOURCE( N, T, I, C )                           \
  class __##N : public noncopyable_t {                   \
    mutable T Value;                                     \
  public:                                                \
                                                         \
    T get() const { T t = Value; Value = I; return t; }; \
    void free() { if( Value != I ) { C; Value = I; } };  \
    T & operator() () const { return Value; };           \
                                                         \
    __##N  () : Value( I ) {};                           \
    ~__##N () { free(); };                               \
  } N

struct noncopyable_t { // it does not matter
  noncopyable_t() {}
  noncopyable_t( const noncopyable_t& );
};

class c_t {
private:
  RESOURCE( a_v, int*, 0, delete Value; );
};

int *foo() {
  return c_t().a_v();
}

a_v field is private in class c_t but it is accesible. why?!

gcc 3.2.x did not have this problem.
