class Base<T>
{
    public class Nested { }
}

class Derived : Base<Derived.Nested> // error CS0426: The type name 'Green' does not exist in the type 'Yellow'
{ }

Complier message is not quite clear here, but this code definitely should not compile because of circular dependency.

    public class Nested { }
}

class Derived : Base<Derived.Nested> // error CS0426: The type name 'Nested' does not exist in the type 'Derived'

Frankly speaking, I do not know item in C# spec which forbid this code.
