The following code produces IllegalAccessError when run. Since the variable is annotated as private[this] the compiler should catch the access violation at compile time.

object Test {
  def main(args: Array[String]) {
    val t = new Test
    t.inner.foo()
  }
}

class Test {
  class Inner {
    def foo() { bar = false }
  }
  val inner = new Inner
  private[this] final var bar = true
}

The access is legal in scala, the bug is that the generated bytecode doesn't accomodate jvm realities.

It seems to work on 2.9.2 and 2.10 trunk, but I can't find a test for it in the sources.
