GDB's support for qualified names is very poor.  GDB's internal
representation for the symbol table, types, and so on needs
substantial work before it can properly handle C++ nested classes,
namespaces, and so on.

At the moment, GDB is waiting for someone with the skill and patience
needed to get it right to volunteer to tackle the problem.
