The bug was filed as a blocker for the .net implementation because there are
cases like this System.Text.RegularExpressions that has a static Match
Match(System.String, System.String) method.

I think that marking the bug as invalid because of a limitation in the
implementation is ridiculous.

The fix (which I am applying to the my source tree at
http://dnet.codeplex.com/) is very simple: continue the look up in enclosing
scope.
