BTW during the PR review the problem you encounter [was anticipated](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12178#issuecomment-773886263) si I guess you're stuck with [the author answer](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/12178#issuecomment-773902749), i.e "this worked because of a special case".

Sure.

Again you can still try to get the change turn into a deprecation first, that'd be legit.

It only broke the compilation which I already have fixed. Kind of. I would have filed a bug if the runtime went kaput.

After reading https://dlang.org/spec/module.html#module_declaration again I wonder why there is no advice to avoid module (file) names which equate symbol names defined in the module. I also wonder how I get a module file named ``foo-bar.d`` referenced from another module. Following the advice in the documentation

```
// foo-bar.d
module foo_bar;

void foo ()
{
}

// main.d
import foo_bar;

void main ()
{
   foo;
}
```

it does not compile:

```
$ dmd -i main.d
main.d(1): Error: module `foo_bar` is in file 'foo_bar.d' which cannot be read
```
