fn main() {
    use self::inner::A;
    mod inner {
        pub struct A;
    }
}
<anon>:2:9: 2:14 error: unresolved import `self::inner::A`. Maybe a missing `extern crate inner`?
<anon>:2     use self::inner::A;
                 ^~~~~

This works, so I'm assuming the issue is that self doesn't behave correctly inside of an anonymous module:

fn main() {
    mod inner {
        pub struct A;
    }
    inner::A;
}
