'class::symbol' : not all overloads are accessible

All overloaded forms of a function in a base class must be accessible to the derived class.

The following sample generates C2876:

// C2876.cpp
// compile with: /c
class A {
public:   
   double a(double);
private:
   int a(int);
};

class B : public A {
   using A::a;   // C2876 one overload is private in base class
};
