+Summary: [GMCS] Cannot access protected members of base class from the constructor
+
+Compilation of the following code:
+
+class A<T>
+{
+  protected A ()
+  {
+  }
+
+  protected int Foo
+  {
+    get
+    {
+      return 47;
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+
+class B<T> : A<T>
+{
+  public B () : base ()
+  {
+    System.Console.WriteLine (this.Foo);
+  }
+}
+
+
+Fails with:
+
+b.cs(21,31): error CS1540: Cannot access protected member `A<T>.Foo' via a
+qualifier of type `B<T>'; the qualifier must be of type `B<T>' (or derived
+from it)
+
+The error message is obviously non-sense. Similar non-generic code is
+compilable. Also, changing 'protected int Foo' to 'public int Foo' helps to
+compile the code.
