           Summary: cannot define a function name that matches a package
                    name in import statements
           Product: D
           Version: D2
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com

When I define a function name (eg test() ) that matches a package name in
import statements (eg test.fun), I get a CT error: function main.test conflicts
with import main.test at main.d(1).
Not only is the CT error misleading, causing headaches in larger projects, but
also, is that an intended restriction? 


suppose the following files:
├── main.d
└── test
    └── fun.d

cat main.d:
import test.fun;
void test(){} //CT error: function main.test conflicts with import main.test at
main.d(1)
void main(){}

cat test/fun.d:
module test.fun;
