There's no realistic scenario that could lead to that case; why would
you have an extern(C++) symbol in some module and also want to put a D
symbol with the same name in the same place?
If you like:
extern (C++) {
int a;
extern (C++,ns) {
int a;
}
}
The whole point of scoped names is to be able to do this.
Also, I would expect to be able to access "ns.a" with the syntax "ns.a", meaning
ns has to be a scope.

I regard it as crucial to determine the cause of your problems before assuming
it is the design.
