Please read the original report again. I knew that this is an error according to the standard; the complaint is about the error message used to report it, which is confusing and makes no sense. By definition a derived class can reference protected base names, so a message that the name can't be referenced because it is protected makes no sense. The name is in fact private as you point out - but that's not what the message says. This is a quality-of-implementation issue, not a correctness issue.
