Yeah at first I thought that would be it too. But on closer inspection the
outer declaration is not in a block and its not a local variable
declaration either - its a field declaration.
If you remove the _use_ from the fragment then it compiles ok (as 10.7
para 1 sentence 1 says it should).
class T
{
int decl; // of a field
void Method()
{
// decl++;
{
int decl; // of a local variable
}
}
}
It's the appearance of decl as a simple-name in an expression that seems
to cause the compiler error.
