You are right ... it could be called a bug :)

But personally I don't see any reason why cscc should implement that...
(maybe as a warning, but certainly not as an error !)... And also I
couldn't find any information about this on the ECMA spec ?. If you
do know where it is in ECMA spec, I think I'll have some reference
to implement against.

It's slightly complicated to figure out the actual accessibility of 
a member ... ie it might be the least common set of accessibilities 
of the member, it's parent class and it's containing class if any ...
Similarly for types ...

If that is correct, the public member of an internal class is actually 
"internal" in accessibility ... or so I think ... need more docs :)
And it's a low priority bug too ...

Looking at it , it looks as though this will be simple to fix as soon
as I get some decent info... :)
