[Bug symtab/11912] C++ name lookup failes

["tromey at redhat dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

The bug here is that the parser treats "Object" as the
constructor's name.  If you dump the intermediate expression you'll see

this->Object

Then later, lookup_struct_elt_type fails because it considers fields
but not (I think) methods.

At the very least we should be printing the type of the constructor,
not failing.

The root of the problem here is that "ptype" accepts either types or expressions,
but we don't have a good way to always differentiate between the two.

As a workaround you can use "ptype class Object" to tell the parser that
you are asking about a type.  (I learned this today while looking at the
docs :-)
