[Bug c++/31525] New: <member> b was not declared in this scope in inherited template class

[edufer at gmail dot com]

Fails on 4.1.2 and 3.4.2. Works on 3.2.2

When compiling the following code:

template <class _T> class A {
protected:
        int b;
};

template <class _T> class B :  public A<_T> {
public:
        void test_ok() {
                this->b = 17;
        }

        void test_fail() {
                b = 17;
        }
};

The method test_ok compiles OK but the test_fails gets the following error:

bug-gcc.cpp: In member function void B<_T>::test_fail():
bug-gcc.cpp:18: error: b was not declared in this scope

Many thanks for your help.
