If one class is derived (not publically) from a second class, the
derived class can still use the parent's public members.
But if the parent class is itself derived (publically), g++ screws up:
it disallows access to the grandparent's public members, which should
have been inherited from the parent.
------------ code illustrating the bug ------------
class a { public: int foo(); };
class b : public a { public: int baz(); };
class c : b { int bar() { return foo() + baz(); }; };
------------ g++ output when run on sample ------------
