a is not a member of v.  So the expression is invalid.  Unless you can find
something in the spec that states otherwise.

How can a case of the compiler accepting something that the spec doesn't allow
be neither accepts-invalid nor a spec issue?

v.a is supposed to work, and it means look up the name in the scope of the base
