           Summary: Symbol conflict error message refers to aliased symbol
                    instead of the alias
           Product: D
           Version: D1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: diagnostic
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: nfxjfg gmail.com



$ cat aaa.d
int x;
alias x y;
int y;

$ dmd aaa.d
aaa.d(1): Error: variable aaa.x conflicts with variable aaa.y at aaa.d(3)

It should say:
aaa.d(2): Error: variable aaa.y conflicts with variable aaa.y at aaa.d(3)

dmd resolves the alias to the original symbol when producing the error message,
although the alias caused the error (and not the original symbol). Additionally
none of the line numbers point to the line causing the error. Think how
confusing this could be in larger codebases.
