>Description:
	C++ allows the word 'typename' after a 'using' directive.  _The C++ Programming Language_ (third edition) [Stroustrup], section A.7 (Grammar/Declarations) defines the using directive:
	  using-declaration:
	      "using" "typename"(opt) "::"(opt) nested-name-specifier 
	      unqualified-id ";"
>How-To-Repeat:
	Attempt to compile the following:
	  struct C { 
	    typedef int INT;
	  };

	  struct D : public C {
	    using typename C::INT;
	  };

	  int main() { 
	    D::INT x = 666;
	  }
	The compiler complains:
	  test.cc:6: parse error before `typename' 
>Fix:
	I'm not sure if there are cases in which the 'typename' portion is required.  I've seen it in production code (the loki library, from _Modern C++ Design_ [Alexandrescu].
