Topic: Nested class friends and access

Is the following legal according to the May 96 (or any) draft? I cannot
seem to find the appropriate section:
class X {
class H; // private member class to be defined later
class Y {
friend class X::H; // ok? or error since X::H is not accessible here?
class X::H* y; // illegal? X::H not accessible...
};
};
class X::H { // legal according to [class.nest] 9.7 even though
//... // X::H is not accessible at file scope
};
X::H v; // illegal since X::H is not accessible at file level?
Thanks.
