Sorry about that - that is hold over from a previous version that
I had.  I'll remove that comment.

I disagree.  22.7 deals with *upwards* name referencing which is
directed at resolution in an upwards manner *across* instantiations.
22.6 deals with general hierarchical names.  22.6.1 & 22.6.2 are
talking about how "hierarchical" names and "selects" interact.  That
is a more general problem than the upwards problem.

Hmmm.  Did you just miss the name "s1" on the enclosing generate
scope?  I think that it is pretty clear why "s1" is directly
visible in this case -- it is the name of an enclosing scope.
