That seems to be what Clang does:
e.C:1:18: error: unknown type name 'bar'
enum class foo : bar { baz };
^
1 error generated.
There's no error about foo::baz, presumably because after realising the
enum-base was bad, they just skipped it and still compiled the enumerator-list
successfully.
EDG gives pretty much the same errors as GCC though.
