+Summary: regression: MCS 0.25 is not able to resolve alias to nested class
+
+mcs (0.25) is not able to resolve an alias to a nested class.
+
+for example : 
+
+when you have the following class :
+
+namespace log4net.Appender {
+	public class RemoteLogging {
+		public class RemoteLoggingSink {
+			public virtual void LogEvents(object[] events) {
+			}
+		}
+	}
+}
+	
+and you declare an alias using directive for 
+log4net.Appender.RemoteLogging.RemoteLoggingSink, eg.
+
+using RemoteLoggingSink = log4net.Appender.RemoteLogging.RemoteLoggingSink;
+
+mcs cannot resolve the type, and fail with the following error message :
+
+error CS0246: Cannot find type `RemoteLoggingSink'
+
+The exact same code does compile using csc.
+
+I've include a test case that allows you to reproduce this issue.
