i.e. "mixin template" inserts it's names into the same scope, and
compiler searching symbols from innermost scope up to module scope.
here first mixin inserts 'enum' member, and searching for second mixin
hits that enum member. to avoid things going out of control compiler is
not trying to guess what you want but stops with error, giving you a
chance to fix the code.
