Gcc 4.4 used to accept the program

---------------------------------------
class Foo {
 friend class Bar;
 friend void func(const class Bar*);
};
--------------------------------------

since 140120 it does not.

Simon found the following:

gcc 2.95.3, 3.4.5 and icc accept it. Previous versions of 4.4 reject it.

The standard says

11.4-7: "A name nominated by a friend declaration shall be accessible in the
scope of the class containing the friend declaration."..

I am not sure if we should accept or reject it, but we should have a testcase
once we decide.
