Current 1.5.0-b20 implementation of J2SE allows
to use single-static-import declaration for the static
member which is nested class or interface. Such declaration
should not be used since current Static Import specification (JSR
201, draft of 08 Sep, 2003) does not state explicitly that nested
static class or nested static interface can be imported from one
compilation unit to another using single-static-import
declaration. For the importing of nested static classes
and nested static interfaces single-type-import-declaration
should be used.

Also section "Summary" of the draft contains the following:
"The proposal is to introduce variants of the import statement into the
JavaTM programming language so as to allow importation of static methods
and fields in the manner that classes and interfaces can now be imported."

Since importing of the static nested classes and interfaces
is not allowed compile-time error should be reported.
 
To reproduce this bug please run the following test
using Make.sh script:
--------------- A.java source begin -----------------
package p;

public class A {

    public static class a {
        public static int f = 4;
        public static int m() {
            return 5;
        }
    }

    public static interface i {
        public int f = 4;
    }
}

--------------- A.java source end -----------------
--------------- Test.java begin -----------------
import static p.A.a;

public class Test {

    public static void main(String argv[]) {

        System.exit(0);
    }
}
--------------- Test.java end -----------------
--------------- Make.sh begin -----------------
