Thank you for your explanation.

Those are seperate errors of course. I've meant that when compiler already
discovered that there is a conflict between number and number() it looks like
it's keeping on emitting errors on every occurence of symbol that becoms a
source of that conflict. In fact GCC found out that it is able to create nor
property number nor member number(); later compiler descried a reference to a
variable that is not exist (because it killed this variable later) and omitted
another error. I agree that compiler exhibits its strict behaviour there but
I'm not shure is it good for non-pedantic mode.
Anyway I'm not familiar with internals, principles and organization of
compilers, so I can be badly mistaken for my proposition.

I expected a different order of error messages.
