    // The parent, child, nextChild relationships are overloaded for namespaces.
    // The cause of all of this is that a namespace can be declared in multiple
    // places. This would not be a problem except that the using clauses(which
    // effect symbol lookup) are related to the namespace declaration not the
    // namespace itself. The result is that each namespace needs lists of all of
    // its declarations, and its members. Each namespace declaration needs a list
    // the declarations and types declared within it. Each member of a namespace
    // needs to access both the namespace it is contained in and the namespace
    // declaration it is contained in.
    //
    //
    // NamespaceSymbol - a symbol representing a name space.
    // parent is the containing namespace.
