Why is it not allowed for a variable name to match a type name?
The following example fails with "Error: variable foo conflicts
with struct foo"
struct foo {}
foo foo;
Imagine if you then tried to write something like
alias bar = foo;
Or, imagine you placed the above declarations into the module
`mymod.d`, and then in a different module wrote
import mymod: foo;
Which `foo` should these refer to, the type or the variable?
