This is not a bug, but the correct implementation of type name resolution according to the JLS and implemented in all compliant Java compilers (first implemented in jdk 1.4.0). There is no way to refer to types in the default package from a named package. Go ahead and try this without any aspects using the jdk1.4 or later compiler and you'll see the same behavior.
