Honestly, I'm surprised that the compiler let you alias
std.algorithm.comparison.min, because it's a templated
function, and in the
case of templates, you alias instantiations of templates, not
the templates
themselves. std.algorithm.comparison.min is just a template for
a function,
not an actual function. Something like
std.algorithm.comparison.min!(int, int) would be an actual
function.

Hi Jonathan,
I just read your answer, thank you a lot
Unfortunately I have not the time right now to answer (I am
leaving my job it is 6:53PM).
I will answer later.
However I just created a github repo to reproduce my observations:
https://github.com/vincent-picaud/DLang_overloading
It is certainly a compiler problem: I used gdc -> compile error,
but with dmd it compiles and runs fine. Full details in the git
repo.
More answers later... I have to leave
