C++03 says "During the lookup for a name preceding the :: scope resolution
operator, object, function, and enumerator names are ignored."

So in -std=c++98 mode G++ is correct to ignore A::C::B and so finds B::F (Clang
gets this wrong)

In C++11 the enumeration is not ignored (because a nested-name-specifier could
refer to a scoped enumeration) so name lookup finds B in the enclosing
namespace, i.e. A::C::B
