Summary: gmcs fails type lookup in referenced assembly when
namespaces clash

Test case
With code similar to the following living in some assembly:
namespace Resources
{
public sealed class SomeType
{
public string Prop { get; set; }
}
}
and the following in another assembly which references the one above:
namespace Another
{
using System;
public class AnotherType
{
void Method ()
{
Console.WriteLine (Resources.SomeType.Prop);
}
}
}
gmcs fails to find the SomeType type because of the external assembly's
Resources namespace clashing with System.Resources. gmcs attempts SomeType
lookup in System.Resources but fails to look for it in the external assembly's
Resources namespace.
Attached tarball contains full code which demonstrates the issue.
I'm setting this to Major as this bug affects any ASP.NET application which
uses global resources programmatically (e.g. BlogEngine)
