Jython fails to resolve references to static nested classes when
referenced through a subclass.

For an example, assume you have the hierarchy:

public class Base {
    public static class NestedBase {
        public static final int ONE=1;
    }
}

public class Child extends Base {
}

Then in jython:
print "Child.NestedBase.ONE=%d" % (Child.NestedBase.ONE)

This will throw:
AttributeError: class 'Child' has no attribute 'NestedBase'

even though the reference is valid in Java.
