As I understand things, the following is legal:

package test;

// Import all the members of X, included inherited members

import X.*;


class A
{
    class B
    {
    }
}

class X extends A
{
    // X inherits a class B
}

class C
{
    B b; // class B is visible from here because of the import
}

However javac fails to find B in the field declaration.
