> It seems that the C version of Avro doesn't resolve fully-qualified type names, and it doesn't
> understand inherited namespaces.
> For example this doesn't work:
> {"type": "record", "namespace": "x", "name": "Y", "fields": [
>   {"name": "e", "type": {"type": "record", "name": "Z", "fields": [
>     {"name": "f", "type": "x.Z"}
>   ]}}
> ]}
> It can't find the type "x.Z".
> (this is similar to a Ruby problem https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-635).
