Hum, an acceptable solution would be to give an error, asking to
explicitely asking to fully qualify the name :

void fun(int c = 0) {...}

void main()

   int c;

   fun(main.c = 5); // ok
   fun((c=5)); // ok
   fun(fun.c = 5); // ok, but different meaning.
}

But still, raising an arror is not backward compatible.

Would the following syntax be backwards compatible:

foo(c: 0)
